Elvis Presley: Paradise Hawaiian Style – NME Readers Reply
uncredited writer, NME, 15 July 1966
B. UYDER, Sheffield: Why should Alan Smith (NME last week) have to apologise to Elvis fans for saying what he thinks of his new film Paradise Hawaiian Style? I've read all the reviews in the national Press as well as the pop magazines, and they virtually all criticise it as being a poor effort. Fifty million critics can't be wrong! Why don't Presley fans be honest and admit he's in a rut?
