Suzanne 3LOVE ME TENDER-VS- THE RENO BROTHERS
May 17th 2008 05:03
Elvis’ very first movie was called ‘LOVE ME TENDER’, originally the movie was going to be called ‘ THE RENO BROTHERS’ but it was finally decided that sticking to LOVE ME TENDER, would be more appropriate.
This movie was a western, and was based around the life of two brothers, who fell in love with the same girl, named Kathy. Kathy was played by (Debra Paget). Elvis played ‘Clint Reno’ While Richard Egan played the older brother Vance Reno.
Vance Reno, has been fighting in the war, and was gone for about 4 years. After hearing a rumour that Vance had died, and Clint being in love with Kathy – decides to marry her. Meanwhile over the years that Vance was missing, he was actually involved in robbing the Army payroll, with good intentions to return it, but instead decided to split the money with the other boys.
At the other end – Clint and Kathy find out that Vance was alive, and when he finally returns home, he finds out that the girl he left behind and was deeply in love with him, had in fact married his brother, Clint. Vance has always been in love with Kathy but never had the courage to confront her about it. At the same time, Kathy also had feelings for Vance.
The army found out about the theft that Vance and the boys had done, and are hunting them down. This is a very touching tale of brotherly love, and a great Western. it does have a sad ending, as Elvis does die, but at the same time, it is the first movie that introduces Elvis to the world.
