The director of the movie was an Elvis fan, but got completely sick of him after making a movie in Memphis.  

 

Article about the actress playing Priscilla in the mini-series based on Elvis and Me.  

And they also profiled the actor playing Elvis.

Erma Bombeck on the "Elvis is Alive" story.  Mom was a big fan of Erma.

Here, Grizzard compares Elvis to 2 Live Crew in terms of societal shock value.  He says in 20 years, 2 Live Crew will seem "Absolutely harmless."  Almost.  I don't even remember anything about them and probably nobody else does either.

 

Greene came back from Elvis week with an idea of turning Graceland into a cemetery where fans could be buried with him.  

 

Grizzard talks about hip hairstyles starting with Elvis.

An editor talks about seeing Elvis on his "Comeback" tour.  He almost passed it up because Elvis wasn't as popular as he used to be.  After going, he was really glad he went.

This is not the back of that article like I thought it was when I posted this.  Anyway, it's a little time capsule of movies in El Paso in the 80's.  Wow, these were terrible movies, especially Caddyshack 2.  I probably shouldn't have posted this.
