Ed A, have you read all these books that were turned into movies? It would be interesting to get an overview of how they compared to the movies.

Yes, I have all of these books and have read them a couple of times. Every few years, I will pull them back out and read them again. However, it has been at 5 years or more since I read them last. I remember some things about each one, but not enough to give an accurate account of the differences. I have a couple of library books that I am reading now. After I finish them, I will start again on the Elvis movies and try to post the differences.

This original letter agreement, dated February 8, 1966, on MGM logo letterhead, is from Colonel Parker to Elvis and is signed at the bottom by both the Colonel in blue ink and by “Elvis A. Presley.”
The letter mentions the temporary copies attached of the agreement for the new contract with MGM to be signed by Elvis. The Colonel is referring to the January 27, 1966 agreement, Elvis’ final with MGM, for a four-picture deal that included the films Speedway, Stay Away, Joe, The Trouble with Girls and Live a Little, Love a Little.
This letter provides Elvis with copies of the agreement to be signed and also outlines the checks and deductions that the Colonel has received to date from the studio as well as confirming the 50-50 distribution of the bonus money. Elvis has indicated his agreement by signing his full name in blue ink under “Agreed to.”
After his last film for MGM, The Trouble with Girls, Elvis would go on to act in two more feature films in 1969, one for National General Pictures and another for Universal Pictures, before his two concert documentaries in 1970 and 1972 and the conclusion of his successful film career.
