Elvis Presley’s favourite movies unveiled by family – 1940 classic made him cry | Films | Entertainment




Aside from being a Hollywood star himself, Elvis Presley was a huge movie fan who had 14 TVs set up around Graceland.

The King would obsess over certain films and rewatch them endlessly, sometimes straight after the end credits.

In the years since his death, the King’s favourite motion pictures have been unveiled by his ex-wife Priscilla Presley, and more recently in an exclusive interview that Express.co.uk conducted with his Memphis Mafia step-brother bodyguard, David Stanley.

Check out all 13 films below, with the one that left Elvis in tears appearing right at the end.

Patton (1970)

Ever the patriot, Elvis loved this epic war biopic of US General George S Patton during his service in World War 2. The film famously opens with George C Scott as Patton, delivering an iconic monologue in front of an enormous American flag. The movie won seven Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay, although Scott declined his Best Actor win.
