"Acapulco"
It's 1963. The hot wire connects the White House and the Kremlin. The first major pop art exhibition caused a sensation. The Whiskey-A-Go-Go Club opens. And in Acapulco, Elvis goes south of the American border. There he is fired as a henchman on a ship, then hired as a lifeguard and singer, admired by local beauties and tricked into jumping off a 136-foot cliff. In other words: he overcomes his fear of heights in a spectacular way. The landscape shots and the Latin-tinged melodies are also spectacular. Let’s have fun!!

"King of hot rhythms"
It's 1964. The mini skirt is modern. If you don't know Watusi, you can't dance. Cassius Clay (soon calling himself Muhammad Ali) wins the heavyweight boxing title.

Then he picks up the guitar and brings rock_n_roll into play. It almost looks as if the talented guy would be just the right person to save the kind-hearted owner's road show from bankruptcy.
