Children who worked with Elvis...

thank you Polk Salad And!! ::


Kurt Russell is that blond boy of 10 years of age who is part of the movie scene, Kurt Russell is paid by the
of Elvis to kick him in the shins. Little did that kid that years later it would play Elvis Kurt Russell in the film
originally made ​​for TV, (whose title is: The Elvis-movie) and receive the main indication as to the actor Emmy for his portrayal.

he looks like a crazy

And they also used the WRONG stage suit (including the wrong belt for that particular suit) for that scene in the film which depicts Elvis's 1969 onstage comeback.

Indeed, but Vernon gave them permission to use this one for the movie, and it's something only hardcore fans would spot. The general wider audience would have been oblivious to this fact. Am I also right in thinking that after the movie was in the can, the suit was never returned? I know it's now in private hands.

The suit was never returned to Graceland and is now owned by the Hard Rock Hotel - it has been on display in Las Vegas and is going to be at the Hard Rock in Tulsa sometime in the new year.

Thank you for your contribution RJM friend.
You're right about Tiger. In fact, there was just a baby ... but several.


Paramount launched a talent search to get three pairs of twins to play the role of Baby Rick and Marla in the film.
The twins would have to be about a year old and hair and brown eyes. It took three pairs of twins because California
law prevented a child to work more than four hours per day or two straight in front of the cameras. He had to make
a social security card for each of the babies, who received $ 22.50 for each day of work.



I heard that Jan Shepard, who played the sister of Elvis in King Creole, almost had his son, Brandon,
to play the role of the baby, but refused to accept what was required when he discovered that the baby cried.
She said her son does not forgiven him since, "Mom, I could have participated in GI Blues!"

Again we did not know the name of these babies ....

These photos are brilliant!
Plus I didn't know they had three sets of twins Thanks again, dolly, for being so informative

You're welcome my dear friend, is a pleasure for me ....

Thank you so much Dolly, these posts of yours are very informative. It is always interesting to find out what happenned to child stars - and how they got on in later life.

Who can discover the name of those children of GI Blues? Thanks baby...

The babies from G.I. Blues names are clearly listed in that news article.

What are the names these two above on Elvis' shoulders in a picture from the set of BLUE HAWAII tho.

Any pictures of the "Tigers" grown up? The names are available. Are any of them on Facebook? That would be interesting. They'd be about the age, give or take, of a lot of people here on this forum.

What a great observer you are my friends. I had not realized ... the names of the boys so explicit ...
Thank you friend is already a big help ....But what about inquire on FaceBook?

Another child who appeared with Elvis that is difficult to find information ...
Her name is Lorena Kirk she was the girl of autistic Changed Habbit.
It was his only involvement in the film.

Larry Domasin Acted As Raoul Almeido In Movie Fun in Acapulco In '63 - Larry was eight years-old when he was chosen to star with Elvis in "Fun in Acapulco." Larry went on to appear in other films with actors such as James Stewart, Marlon Brando, and Maureen O’Hara.

I have checked the movie sites and anywhere else, and I don't think she ever did another film. Before or after.

If anyone can find anything else on Lorena Kirk, that would be most helpful.

Why and how did they choose this child to do this very unusual part?

Perhaps Paul Peterson's organization on child actors might know something.
