	Frankie - the fifties
		Frankie was unaware of the trail of producers he had gone through, as was seen as "difficult" by the powers high up in the BBC.
		Frankie's first foray away from the stage was in the film The Runaway Bus (1954) (now available on DVD), followed in 1955 by Jumping for Joy and A touch of the Sun (1956).
		TV was a rising star, but Frankie had shied away after a disastrous brush on the TV quiz show What's My Line in 1954 where he stepped in at the last minutes and nerves got the better of him.

	Bluegrass Messengers
		Speculation that the “Frankie” ballads based on the murder became the basis of the “Frankie and Johnny” are only warranted because the ballad is said by some scholars to have been in oral circulation before the St. Louis murder in 1899.
		Frankie looked over the transom, She saw to her suprise, There on a cot sat Johnny Making love to Nellie Bly, He is my man, and he's doing me wrong.
		Frankie drew back her kimona, She took out a little forty-four, Root-to-toot three time she shoot Right through that hardwood door, She shot her man, He was doing her wrong.

	Howerd, Frankie
		Frankie Howerd was a popular post-war stand-up comedian, who survived many changes in the humour tastes of the British nation to remain a television favourite until his death in 1992.
		Howerd made his feature film debut in 1954, a major role in The Runaway Bus and had a small but memorable part in The Ladykillers the following year and it was such film roles and occasional radio appearances that kept him occupied throughout the rest of the 1950s.
		The anarchic comedy new wave that emerged in the wake of the punk rock phenomenon began to be taken seriously by television companies by the early 1980s and there was a backlash against Howerd's sexual innuendo style of humour in favour of full frontal comedy attacks on taboo subjects.

	Dear Frankie (2005): Emily Mortimer, Gerard Butler, Sharon Small, Jack McElhone - PopMatters Film Review
		Dear Frankie opens the year Frankie is nine, when the threesome has taken refuge in a declining dock town on the River Clyde.
		And her film is funny in the process, although on the evidence of the preview audience's reactions, the deadpan humor may be too culturally specific for some viewers.
		Her subsequent passionate insistence that any man who "plays" Frankie's father must only be available for a day, and never be seen again, is thus both understandable and touching.

	Frankie and Johnny and Black Snake Moan (The Dressing)
		After they are spent, Frankie wants Johnny to go home, but Johnny, who keeps Shakespeare and a dictionary in his work locker, is deeply smitten with Frankie and rolls out the words and quotations he has learned to persuade her that they are meant for each other.
		Both Frankie and Johnny in the Claire de Lune and Black Snake Moan are about losers who find a way to step out of their gutters into the lunatic light of love.
		For this film, Samuel Jackson learned how to play the steel-stringed guitar and it is with music and gravelly singing that sways Rae to love Lazarus as if he is her father.

	Frankie&Johnny - Soundtrack CD review - Elvis Information Network
		Similarly to Harum Scarum Elvis got to wear some cool costumes for the film even if he was a little overweight.
		'Frankie & Johnny' Tk 1,3&4- There is a lovely double-bass feel to this version, which is so lacking on the Master, and the jazz vibe is really captured.
		Verdict - Frankie & Johnny is very different from most Elvis movies in that it has a genuine theatrical feel to the soundtrack.

	Bewitched Beography: Nancy Kovack - Bewitched @ Harpies Bizarre
		She later racked up an impressive list of episodic TV credits, including the memorable role of "Sheila Sommers," the jet-setting ex-girlfriend of Darrin Stephens in the smash hit Bewitched, and was Emmy-nominated for a 1969 guest shot on Mannix.
		Her final film role was as an astronaut's wife in 1969's Marooned, after which Nancy met her husband, and in July 1969, became the wife of world-renowned maestro Zubin Mehta, of New York Philharmonic fame.
		And consequently there's not one film or role that I look at of which I'm proud, not one which I would recommend to anyone to see.

	Elvis Presley 1966-68. Elvis Biography
		In the fifties and early sixties, the films and film-related records were wonderfully successful, but as the sixties have worn on, the movies and records, though still profitable, have not been nearly so successful as they were before.
		The look evokes the era of James Dean and the Marlon Brando type motorcycle films of the fifties, the era when Elvis was first proclaimed the King of Rock 'n' Roll.
		It is yet another film quite different from the typical Elvis films.

		Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Johnny pulls down Cully's beard during the Mardi Graw party, Cully says something as he fixes his beard, but his lips never move.
		Frankie and Johnny wasn't half bad as Elvis pictures go- which means it was half- watchable as a movie and not just a typical kitchy vehicle to ogle the King.
		The musical performances we're good and the sets and costumes interesting-the high point in the film is the last performance of Frankie and Johnny--Elvis actually comes off pretty suave at times as a river boat gambler and his character played well off a nubile, young Donna Douglas.
