Who

60TH ANNIVERSARY!

Viva Las Vegas (1964)

Wednesday, July 17, 7:30 pm

Elvis Presley, Ann-Margret, Cesare Danova

Presley and Ann-Margret sparkle as brightly as the Vegas strip in this musical romp through Sin City. Presley is race car driver Lucky Jackson, who is earning money to replace his car’s engine before the Vegas Grand Prix. He gets sidetracked trying to win the affection of Rusty Martin, pitting him against his racing nemesis both on and off the course. With some of that Vegas luck, Jackson will be singing Viva Las Vegas as he wins the race and the love of his life. 35mm
