	Film History of the 1950s
		Jailhouse Rock (1957) is generally acknowledged as his most famous and popular film, but he also appeared in Loving You (1957) (noted for his first screen kiss) and in director Michael Curtiz' King Creole (1958) as a New Orleans teen rebel (acclaimed as one of his best acting roles) before the decade ended.
		They preferred Rock Around the Clock (1956) that featured disc jockey Alan Freed and the group Bill Haley and His Comets (singing the title song) and many others (such as the Platters and Freddy Bell and The Bell Boys) - it was the first film entirely dedicated to rock 'n' roll.
		By the 70s, his film roles had deteriorated, and although he returned to stage performances and revived his singing career, he was physically on the decline until his death in August, 1977 of heart disease and drug abuse.

	Biography for Elvis Presley
		After a creditable debut in a supporting role in Love Me Tender (1956, renamed at the last minute to capitalize on that hit song, which had been released just prior to the movie), he went on to star in Loving You (1957) and the film many consider his best, Jailhouse Rock (1957).
		Barbra Streisand approached Presley to play the Norman Maine role in her rock remake of A Star Is Born (1976), which could have changed the course of his career-and offered him his greatest challenge-but Colonel Tom nixed the idea.
		He seemed to get better with each new film, and was given some solid properties like King Creole (1958) and Flaming Star (1960, in which he played a half-breed Indian).
