 Kissin' Cousins (1964)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Trivia: Elvis Presley supposedly loathed the "strawberry blond" wig he had to wear as the hillbilly cousin in this film, in part because it made him look as he had before deciding to dye his hair fl in the mid-fifties to look more like one of his musical idols, Roy Orbison.
One of his characters is in the army and sent on a mission to secure a lease for a missile base on a mountain top owned by his relatives - one of whom is the blond cousin.
It may sound strange, but neither character seems to have much to do, and the result is a strange lack of an Elvis presence.

As British beer writer Michael Jackson writes in his Beer Companion: "After a beer dinner, any spirit served should be a whisky, preferably a malt Scotch." It is the height of zymurgic epicurianism, as anyone who's ever had the pleasure of a glass of whiskey with a beer chaser can tell you.
