Also in 1961 Elvis made the film "Wild In The Country." The script was based on a novel by the famous playright Clifford Odets, "The Lost Country."

(We've posted links to a number of films though this database. It's not complete by any means and is deficit photos of many actors and actresses but one of the best movie databases going on the Internet. We like the link feature which you can use to follow the careers.)

Here's a YouTube presentation of Elvis singing to Tuesday Weld's character in the film, the song "In My Way."

Elvis had numerous co-stars on this film but the people I remember seeing socially with Elvis and his friends were Tuesday Weld, Gary Lockwood, and Christina Crawford.

Tuesday and Gary were dating for a while so they were a couple, and they showed up to play football (Gary had started out as a pro football player, Tuesday was on the side lines cheering Elvis' team on.) To my knowledge Elvis was not involved romantically with any of his co-stars on this film.
