'Viva Las Vegas' 50th Anniversary Premium Digibook

In his highest grossing movie, Elvis shares the screen with Ann-Margret, easily creating the most electrifying teaming Elvis had on screen. He plays Lucky Jackson, a Grand Prix race driver working at a casino to raise cash for a new engine; she's a hotel swimming instructor - and the romantic action revs up from their first meeting. George Sidney, who also directed Ann-Margret in Bye Bye Birdie, combines the hormonal heat wave with

fascinating sights of '60s Las Vegas. David Winters (West Side Story) choreographed the 10 musical song-and-dance scenes which also featured his dancers. Songs include the high-roller title track, the stars' duet on 'The Lady Loves Me,' her sultry 'Appreciation' and The King's version of Ray Charles' 'What'd I Say'. The soundtrack is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 stereo.

Special Features:

- Commentary by Steve Pond, rock journalist and author of 'Elvis in Hollywood'
- Featurette Kingdom: Elvis in Vegas
- Theatrical trailer
