Elvis in Hollywood: Shaking Up the Silver Screen

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the death of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, Elvis Aaron Presley, on August 16, 1977. Although known primarily for his musical career, Elvis was also a prolific film actor, starring in 31 feature films and two documentary films in his relatively short life. Four decades after his passing, Elvis remains one of the 20th century’s most significant cultural icons, having left an indelible imprint on music, fashion, and film.
