Elvis Presley Change of Habit 1969 Trailer

Change of Habit is a 1969 musical drama film starring Elvis Presley and Mary Tyler Moore. It was Presley's final acting role; his remaining two film appearances were concert documentaries. It was also Mary's fourth and final film under her brief Universal Pictures contract; she wouldn't appear in another theatrical movie until Ordinary People in 1980.

Elvis stars as a professional man for the first time in his career. Dr. Carpenter heads a ghetto clinic in a major metropolis. He is surprised to be offered assistance by three women. Unknown to him, the three are nuns in street clothing who want to aid the community but are afraid the local residents might be reluctant to seek help if their true identities were known.
Carpenter falls in love with Sister Michelle Gallagher, played by wholesome Mary Tyler Moore, but Sister Michelle's true vocation remains unknown to Dr. Carpenter. She also has feelings for the doctor but is reluctant to leave the order. The film concludes with Sister Michelle entering a church to pray for guidance to make her choice.

"a different Elvis Presley", "change of pace", "a new kind of role" - I notice a trend here!

When interviewed about C.O.H director William Graham recalled how he asked Colonel Parker if Elvis could take a couple of days off the set to have some acting coaching to help him handle the more sensitive love/medical scenes in C.O.H. Parker refused -siting Elvis not getting paid for the proposed coaching and it not being stated in their contract as reasons. Sadly all too typical of Parker's attitude and by the late 60's Elvis' too, towards his movies. Take the money and run!

@whispperson This is not a "powerful underated film" it's embassasing garbage and Elvis would have been the first to admit it... However it has a very dated, amusing, innocent quality as do most Presley film vehicles and is painless to watch if you're sick at home with the flu in the afternoon..

This is a Powerfull Film and yet very underated
