Information
Elvis is Mike Edwards, an aviator who, along with his co-pilot (Gary Lockwood), travels to Seattle where they end up at the World's Fair and babysitting a girl after Danny, the co-pilot, seriously jeopardizes their business. . There, Mike will fall in love with a young doctor who will not make it easy for him.
It Happened At The Word's Fair is one of the most entertaining movies in the entire filmography of the king of rock. Good soundtrack, funny and endearing situations and of course, a beautiful love story, all surrounded by a setting like the one at the World's Fair held in the city of Seattle in 1962.
One of the memorable moments of the film is the brief appearance of a very young Kurt Russell, a regular actor in Disney movies during his childhood and adolescence and later one of the most popular actors in Hollywood during the 80s and 90s. Curiously he would play the rock star in the John Carpenter-directed 1979 biopic "Elvis."
