When they say 'remastered for optimum sound and picture quality' they actually mean it. The sound is excellent throughout and the picture is much brighter than previous Loving You DVD releases. Highly recommended!

Martin Sheen talks about Elvis Presley
From this DVD, Martin Sheen talks about how much Elvis meant to him, why Elvis was king and shows he is a well informed Elvis fan, and music/film lover. As a bonus there are four interviews included. The interview with Martin Sheen is quite interesting. Martin is a big fan and tells of his love for Elvis and seeing Love Me Tender about 20 times in the '50s. Unlike the other interviews which I found unexciting, this one grabbed me from the start with Martin Sheen's enthusiasm for the interview and for Elvis. I watched the interview twice then the movie. I have given away my old copy of Loving You and replaced it with this delightful DVD.

Loving You
When premiered in 1957, moviegoers could barely hear the dialogue due to the screaming and swooning of Elvis' frenzied fans. Now newly remastered for optimum sound and picture quality, Loving You stars a young Elvis Presley in his second feature film. This semi-autobiographical tale - which boasts some of his most outstanding performances including 'Teddy Bear' and 'Loving You' - chronicles the King's meteoric rise to super-stardom. With his unique vocal style, smoldering sensuality and easy-going sex appeal to burn, Elvis shows us why he will live forever!
Features the following classic Elvis hits Got A Lot Of Living To Do Party Teddy Bear Hot Dog Lonesome Cowboy Mean Woman Blues Loving You.
Elvis looks much more relaxed in this movie when compared to his first film Love Me Tender (1956). The storyline suits him perfectly, and not surprisingly, Elvis delivers some fantastic performances. He is supported by a strong cast and backed by original band members Scotty Moore and Bill Black. Keen fans will also notice the only film appearance of Gladys and Vernon Presley together, as audience members, during 'Got A Lot Of Living To Do'. As a bonus there are four interviews included.
