Elvis: 'Jailhouse Rock' Blu-ray Disc (Region Free)

Jailhouse Rock Blu-ray. Elvis Presley's third and best film is this musical romp released in 1957, just as Elvis was reaching the peak of his hip-swiveling pre-army success. Filmed in ultra-cool black and white, the movie stars Elvis as a good ol' boy who saves a woman from an assault but kills her attacker, so he's convicted of manslaughter and sent to jail. While doing time he takes up the guitar and becomes a singing sensation, ready for the big time when he's finally released. He becomes a big star but his inflated ego gets him into trouble with his former cellmate and his new girlfriend. Short on plot but heavy on rock & roll, this EP classic features such hit songs as 'Treat Me Nice', 'Baby, I Don't Care', 'Don't Leave Me Now', and, of course, the classic title song, performed in an elaborate jailhouse number that Elvis choreographed himself. This is Elvis in all his big-screen glory, and the movie's upbeat ending made it a huge success during its original release.
