Wild In The Country (original) (raw)
Wild In The Country
Released: Jun. 8, 1961
Wild in the Country is the final screenplay written by legendary playwright Clifford Odets, and features a moving, heartfelt performance by Elvis Presley. The film also contains the Presley songs "Wild in the Country" and "I Slipped, I Stumbled, I Fell." Possibly the sexiest of all of The King's movies, Elvis plays a backwoods delinquent blessed with great literary talents with Millie Perkins as his childhood sweetheart.
