Directed by: Richard Thorpe
Starring: Elvis Presley, Vaughn Taylor, Judy Tyler, Mickey Shaughnessy
Audio problem: In one of his most famous movie scenes, Elvis lip syncs the wrong words to Jailhouse Rock. Watch his lips when he sings the words "The (band) was jumpin' down, the joint began to swing." (01:05:00)
Suggested correction: The correct lyrics are: "The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing." Not sure if this corrects the lip syncing discrepancy though.
Continuity mistake: In one scene, Elvis Presley's prison uniform displays the number 6239, yet in another it becomes 6240.
Peggy Van Alden: How dare you think such cheap tactics would work with me.
Vince Everett: That ain't tactics, honey. It's just the beast in me.
Trivia: Judy Tyler and her husband were both killed in a road accident on July 3, 1957, just three days after production was completed and before its premiere. Elvis Presley was so devastated by her death that he refused to watch the movie.
