Tickle Me
Tickle Me is a 1965 American musical comedy film directed by Norman Taurog and starring Elvis Presley as a champion rodeo bull-rider and bronco-buster.
Presley won a 1966 Golden Laurel Award as best male actor in a musical film for this role.
It is the only Elvis film released by Allied Artists Pictures and saved the studio from financial collapse, "Tickle Me" helping to avert bankruptcy thanks to a song from its recycled soundtrack, "(Such an) Easy Question", which was a Top 40 hit in the United States, peaking at #11 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 and reaching #1 on the "Billboard" Easy Listening chart in
July, 1965.
The film made $5 million at the box office.
For the first and only time in a Presley film, the soundtrack had no "new" material, utilizing album cuts dating back as early as 1960.
Some of these tracks were overdubbed for the film.
In one case, a different take was used ("I Feel That I've Known You Forever", featuring what appears to be a vocal done on the soundstage).
In another case , a song was presented without the harmony vocal and narration of the original release ("I'm Yours").
The cost-cutting experiment of recycling older recordings would not be repeated by Elvis.
Julie Adams and Jocelyn Lane co-star.
The screenplay was written by Elwood Ullman and Edward Bernds, who had written The Three Stooges film shorts and theatrical films as well as scripts for The Bowery Boys.
They brought to the film a sizable quota of slapstick, sight gags and general silliness not found in any other Presley vehicle.
The film was first released in the VHS format in the early 1980s in a limited version from Allied Artists Home Video.
It was issued again by CBS/Fox video in 1985, 1987 and 1992, and by Warner Home Video in 1997.
In 2007, "Tickle Me" was released for the first time on DVD, in the wide-screen letterbox format.
