KING CREOLE (1958)

MICHAEL CURTIZ

Plot

An intelligent and noir-ish adaptation of a Harold Robbins story, with Presley as the street hustler who makes an image for himself as a singer and performer. Excellently done with old hand Walter Matthau, unusually cast as a gangster stealing the show as usual.
