I grew up in the "Elvis era" and still love him today. Anything he was in I would watch and enjoy.Movie Review: A Fair within a musical story
Summary: 5 Stars
After having viewed this movie, you feel like if you have been a visitor at
the Seattle's World Fair in 64, I enjoyed espescially the revolving
restaurant at the top of the Space Needle, the story is bleak but the view is
spectacular, the tunes are good, the actors are good, very few women as
compared to other Elvis' movies. All in all, captivating, interresting and a
good time spent watching this film.

Fantastic...that is why he is still the King, young Kirk Russell was good also
Summary of It Happened at the World's Fair
The novelty backdrop of the 1962 Seattle World's Fair lends wonderful space-age scenery to this Elvis vehicle. The King co-stars with a pre-2001 Gary Lockwood as freelance pilots stranded in Seattle, where Elvis spends more time babysitting a little kid than panting after ostensible love interest Joan O'Brien. There's more plot than usual for a Presley picture, which in this case is not a good thing, and the songs are pallid, save "One Broken Heart for Sale." The real kick is the futuristic look of the World's Fair, as personified by Seattle's Space Needle and Monorail (both of which serve as backdrops for EP songs). Just three years out of the Army, Elvis's persona is thoroughly square and tame, ruffled only by the occasional comic double-take. And yes indeed, that is little Kurt Russell, future star of Elvis, kicking the King in the shins in a couple of scenes. --Robert HortonPresley, Elvis Video
