Behind the Scenes of Jailhouse Rock, 1942

Jailhouse Rock is a 1957 American musical drama film directed by Richard Thorpe and starring a 22-year-old Elvis Presley, Judy Tyler, Mickey Shaughnessy, Vaughn Taylor, and Jennifer Holden. Adapted by Guy Trosper from a story written byNedrick Young, the film follows a young man called Vince Everett (Presley) who is sentenced to prison for manslaughter who is mentored in music by his prison cellmate who realizes his musical abilities. After his release from jail, while looking for a jobas a club singer, Everett meets a musical promoter (Tyler) who helps him launch his career. As Everett develops his musical talent and becomes a star, his self-centred personality begins to affect his relationships.

Jailhouse Rock premiered in Memphis, Tennessee, on October 17, 1957, and was released nationwide on November 8, 1957. It peaked at number three on the Variety box office chart, and reached number 14 in the year's box-office totals, grossing$4 million. The film initially earned mixed reviews, with most of the negative reception directed towards Presley's persona. In 2004, the film was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress, who deemed it "culturally,aesthetically or historically significant."

Jailhouse Rock earned mixed reviews from critics. It was looked upon as scandalous once it was released because it portrayed Vince Everett as an anti-heroic character, presented a convict as a hero, used the word "hell" as a profanity,and included a scene showing Presley in bed with co-star Tyler.

Jailhouse Rock is highly popular with Presley fans because it depicts him at a time in his career when his talent was still raw and untamed. The filmis considered to be one of Presley's better movies.
