In one of his best movies, Elvis Presley plays a heavenly, bonafide jerk who, on route to his next job, accidentally encounters Barbara Stanwyck, her even jerkier husband, and her radiant step-daughter (Joan Freeman) . Maggie (Stanwyck) decides to let Elvis become her dying carnival’s roustabout, but he does more. When Elvis sings, well, you know what happens! The carnival begins to attract attention and the money starts rolling in. But when Elvis is offered a bigger salary by another carnie, he is torn between the prospects of a better life and his loyalty to Stanwyck, and particularly, her step-daughter. Every song in the film is “a astounding, extraordinary, incredible, fantastic” experience. Elvis’s fun rockin’ with “Poision Ivy League” to his romantic wooing of Freeman in a ferris wheel, to the upbeat “It’s Carnival Time” the spacious production number, “Runt Egypt”, and the final, memorable number, “And The Whole World’s Gonna Be Mine”. And Stanwyck is unprejudiced stout as the good-hearted carnie whom Elvis learns to trust. You’ll have fun with this movie or capture it for the Elvis fan in your family… “be a substantial shot for a dollar, it’s Carnival Time!”

Although rather formulaic, Roustabout is one of Elvis’ better outings. I really treasure this film. I have to disagree with the reviewer who thinks the songs were forgettable. I found them quite memorable and witty. Example: Poison Ivy League, boys in that Ivy League, give me an itch — those “sons of the rich.” Granted, the song needs to be understood within the context of the movie, but for a 1964 Elvis film that’s rather tongue in cheek! Roustabout — “I’m unbiased a Roustabout, drifting from town to town, no job can contain me down…” It’s a tall number that really introduces us to Elvis’ free-wheeling character (a space up for the movie position) And of course who can forget “Petite Eva.” Minute Eva came out struttin wearin nuttin but a button and bow… It’s an early favorite 50s tune that meshed within the Carny atmosphere of the film. And even It’s Carnival Time although very simplistic is a catchy cramped tune. Stanwyck is substantial and so is Leif Ericson, playing a doubting dolting father-type, although I honest don’t know how Elvis can punch him out one diminutive and then suddenly they’re pals the next (but that’s formula) . Explore it’s fun, the tunes are peppy, he gets the girl what more can you glean outta of an Elvis 60s movie!
