Plot: Deke Rivers (Presley), a talented delivery driver, is discovered by a country and western band's publicist (Lizabeth Scott) and bandleader (Wendell Corey). His raw charisma and musical talent make him a sensation, creating romantic drama and conflict within the band.
Key facts:

Supporting actress Dolores Hart, who plays Elvis's love interest, made her film debut in Loving You and later co-starred with him in King Creole.
