elvis filmography: ranked. Review by Swartacus ★★★½ 7. Roustabout is actually one of the better outings of Elvis' hokey early '60s films. It's nowhere near as good as Viva Las Vegas, but it beats the pants off of hot garbage like It Happened at the World's Fair.

Who is roustabout & why is he so famous?
“Roustabout” (1964) is easily one of the better Elvis flicks (for me, at least), probably because the setting is the carnival & carnies, but also because the story is serious (rather than farcical) and more captivating than most.
