(1957) Waikiki Wedding
ROMANTIC COMEDY
Like many of Elvis movies, the story is built around Bing Crosby's songs in which a young lady, Georgia Smith (Shirley Ross) winning a miss pineapple contest with a prize of 3 weeks in Hawaii. Because she was also promised romance with this vacation, and is unable to get any, motivating her to want to leave her vacation early. And that is when executives send Bing Crosby over, he plays Tony Marvin, to woo and convince her to stay. Both Martha Raye as Myrtle Finch and Bob Burns as Shad Buggle also stars as comedy relief. I like Bing Crosby, but if it's just to listen to the songs, I can do that without watching the movie.
