Girl Happy

#237402

Perhaps this has been discussed before. I was watching it last night and I noticed how Shelly is acting like such a clone of Ann in Viva Las Vegas!

Her smacking her thighs, that dreamy shimmy of her head...etc. It is done well though, but it still is quite noticeable.

What's the problem

And in case anyone missed it:

I have a DVD-R of the Turner widescreen broadcast of this flick. Pretty well-done! But I look forward to the Deluxe DVD.

Uh..great birthday thread. Though there is not one mention of what I had just spoke of.

So yeah, Shelly is hot, yeah Shelly had a birthday, yeah Shelly got hurt....now can we get back on topic?

#237408

I think that was just a common dance of the day. You see chicks dancing like that in all the" beach blanket bingo" movies, too.

Oh, I see. You control the "All-Elvis" area as well? Get a life.

#237413

No it wasn't the dance, it was the way she was acting in the film. Watch the two side by side and you will see what I am speaking about. Particularly is when she takes the stage with Elvis. Almost a exact clone of "C'mon Everybody".

It is a complete robbery!

Greg,

No I was merely pointing out that you contributed nothing. Go have a cup of coffee.

#237418

I "contributed" plenty. Let's face it: the subject of "Girl Happy" and "Shelley Fabares" is pretty finite.

And what brings you back to the "all-Elvis" area at long last?

Well, if Shelley is copying Ann, Ann spent a great deal of her early career aping Marilyn Monroe. I'll take Marilyn and Shelley over Ann any day.

Bud I have been here for a long time.

My post wasn't aimed at recreating the wheel, I was just curious if anyone else noticed.

You of course being the simpleton, will jump on to sabotage and being first poster to boot!

Now go away, I can't help it if you got your feewings hurt.

XXXXXXXXXx

Jerry,

The curious part is that it is only 2 movies later! I am betting audiences at the time saw it as well. Poor imitation if you ask me. Hot as Shelly was, it is so blatant, I am wondering why Ann didn't sue.

Do you know what I am speaking of???

Genesim: As often as I've watched Girl Happy(and that's a lot), as it's always been one of my faves, I've never noticed. I'll just have to watch it again.

#237425

Genesim calls me the simpleton. How do you like that, folks?

Let's face it: most of your postings are mostly incoherent rants on the off-topic section. But welcome back to Elvisdom. It is better over here, don't you think?

#237427

Are these more of those "contributions"?

By the way, who are you talking too. The imaginary "folks".

Here, I will give it to you straight.

I am sorry, Greg, I didn't mean to offend you. Perhaps simpleton was a little too harsh perhaps your little ego cannot take such a jab. I mean this from the bottom of my heart. Now can we get back on topic or are you gonna throw another fit??

#237428

Who's having a fit? I like "Genesim."

If we didn't have one, we'd have to invent one.

#237430

I can see my request was too much to ask.

Shelley & Ann-Margret are both girls.

Girls just do that sort of thing !

Thank goodness !

#237435

Genesim comes to the Elvis board and gets such stimulating discussions going. Hah-hah.

Greg, he doesn't mean to offend anyone, he just manages to do it naturally.

Colin B,

Thanks for that description. I really am glad that you shed some light on the subject.

Did I really start the topic-how many asssholes can we get to respond to a simple observation?

#237448

Greg -

No No - it's all right !

I actually am an assshole !

So no insult, really.

#237456

What I know is: I love this movie and the soundtrack is great too!
