Movie in a Park | King Creole (1958): Musical Teen Drama Starring Evis Presley
Denied his high school diploma because of a schoolyard fight, Danny Fisher is unsure how he's going to support himself and his unemployed father. He briefly flirts with a life of crime before a club owner hears him singing and offers him a job. Things look promising until rival club owner and Danny's former boss, Maxie, tries to lure him back with threats and the charms of his sometimes-girlfriend, Ronnie. Director: Michael Curtiz Cast: Elvis Presley, Carolyn Jones, Walter Matthau, Dolores Hart, Dean Jagger, Vic Morrow, Liliane Montevecchi, Paul Stewart Elvis Presley was a singer and actor. Referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll", he is widely regarded as one of the most culturally significant figures of the 20th century. Presley's energetic and sexually provocative performance style, combined with a mixture of influences across color lines during a transformative era in race relations, brought both great success and initial controversy. Attendees are encouraged to bring a blanket and a friend, and grab a spot on the lawn to watch a feature film on the big screen under the stars. Snacks and drinks are available for purchase.
