[GKRENKEL]

smoking a cigar...he did that occassionally

[dcrimmen]

Cool!

[Magryd3344]

This is a great private footage!!

[snookerjam]

wow fantastic footage:))))

[mommastcb]

Elvis looks like he wants to beat monkey man down.Why would he sit in his lap?Dummy.

[puttheblame]

The blond boy from 0:33 to 0:36 looked like Elvis when he was a kid

[qqsomething]

This was a party to celebrate Sam Phillips' new house, in Memphis; he kid at 0:35 is his son. At 0.:38 (and beyond) next to the monkey is Dewey Phillips, first DJ to ever play an Elvis record on the air. And of course the girl sitting next to Elvis is Yvonne Lime. I'm guessing that the monkey is Sam Phillips himself, playing with Elvis.

You've got to understand, everybody smoked back then, it was a product of their time.

[ELVISETA1]

it wAS DOPE

[nktrygg]

smoking the joint at 41 seconds is way more interesting than the earlier ciggie

[inkey2]

@nktrygg yeah, that has to be a joint.....you just don't hold a tobacco cigarette that way and certainly do not offer a hit to someone

[mommastcb]

@inkey2 I disagree that it is a joint.My opinion is based on the fact that Elvis didn't want to be seen smoking because he didn't want his fans to do it.I think that is very credible thing that he did :)

[inkey2]

@mommastcb I do not think it would be unusual, even back then, for a cool young hipster like Elvis to smoke pot "socially" on ocassions (it's not like he was a pothead). Also, he is holding it and taking a hit off it the way you would smoke pot.......and who passes a tobacco cigarette around....not too common to do that. The cigarette looks thinner than a normal cig too. I mean, if Elvis tried pot for a short peroid in his life to me that would in no way diminish his character

[mommastcb]

@inkey2 You are so right.No one shares a cigar!Sorry about that.It doesn't matter to me though.I guess my thoughts about the 50's are not entirely right.

[00Elsa001]

How lovely !

[msvetusik]

great!



[montgomeryps]

are you sure that wasnt a ciggerite? anyway he looked pissed off when camera got to him.

[1wolfiesLady]

Why is there a monkey man? :D some kinda odd tradition? (;

[PinerinFla]

Wow does he look like Benjamin when he turns around after cutting the cake!!

[metalupyourcunt]

aww adorable elvis. what great footage of him ;)

looks like they are all having alot of fun haha :)

[eugenecraddock]

Yvonne Lime was also an Eddie Cochran girlfriend.

[NERNOTO]

IS ELVIS SMOKING WEED OD 41 SEC.???

[TheChoice264]

No, i heard that the film stops because Elvis got pissed at the clown,jumped up off his chair, and pulled his .45 on his ass!

[SweetCaroline1971]

Wonderful clip of ELVIS just have fun. Nice to know that he had those happy type moments in his lifetime.

[epmelodygirl]

No, of course not nktrygg, This was an innocent gathering of family, friends, and costar and girlfriend Yvonne Lime. In Guralnick's "Last Train to Memphis"it is said that Elvis was so innocent when he first went to Hollywood not only did he not do any drugs, the people around him couldn't do any either! When they would bring girls up from the lobby to meet Elvis he had to get to know a girl by talking and watching TV before "making love to her early in the morning." Not completely innocent.

[lace36]

Great Vid. I thought Elvis smoked anyway.....

[Lisa3577]

This is just Wonderful to see this old clip and the fun ..100*s thanks for posting

[vashsant]

he frequented cigarillos, but never made a habit of cigarettes. Tried them? sure..who hasn't, but he never made a habit of it. Thats what he meant when he said he didnt smoke or drink. There was no habit. he tried pot, and lsd too y know.

[sheltiepaws1]

I love seeing these early films, takes me back in time.

I love seeing him just being himself, he was a beautiful man:)

Thankyou so much for sharing this with everyone, you have a good heart:)

[epmelodygirl]

I've seen this clip before, and I always wondered who his date was. He was dating several girls in 1957-58 that looked very much alike: Anita Wood, Dottie Harmony, and Yvonne Lime. Of course Anita is the one that lasted the longest, she lived at Graceland, and left when she overheard him trying to decide between herself and Priscilla. Elvis supposedly sometimes smoked cigarettes too, but they never became an addiction I don't think which is unusual.

[julmo1]

Great clip!!! Love it, thank u so much!

[memphisdrean]

what's he doing from 0:40-0:43?

[fortheloveofivy84]

[MrSenneboy]

@fortheloveofivy84 actually he liked cigarillos, no cigars
