Give it a week or so and I'll try and get round to it.

Apologies if I've posted it before:

Kid Galahad

I've always wondered if there was a part of the storyline that didn't make it to the final cut.

When the young couple are making their wedding arrangements, Father Higgins [Liam Redmond] asks Walter Gulick [Elvis]
where he was baptised & he replies 'right here in Cream Valley'.

Father Higgins is taken aback by this as he had understood that Walter was from 'some little town in Kentucky'.

Walter explains that Kentucky was where he was brought up, but he was born in Cream Valley.

Father Higgins studies Walter's baptismal certificate, & doesn't hand it back, saying that he'll 'have to check this with the records'.

I think this was leading up to a plot development where some snag was discovered, like Walter & Rose were related or some such.

But no mention of any problem, or who his parents might have been, is ever referred to again in the film.

Some of the older characters would have remembered his parents, wouldn't they ?

It seems that a whole chunk of the story is missing somehow !

What do others think ?

That inbred theme again before kissin cousins?
Walter and rose were brother and sister?
It's not a blooper. Its outrageous.

Not a 'blooper' as such, but some of the storyline seemed to have been cut.

Maybe the film ran for too long & some trimming was needed ?

If the snag was that the two were related in some way, it was obviously sorted out satisfactorily by the end of the film.

Or not, and elvis tried to make a stand for inbred with this movie.
And the colonel cut him short, again.
