Brand new factory sealed dvd of the Technicolor light-rock musical from Columbia was based on the 1960 Broadway hit, which was inspired by Elvis being drafted into the Army in 1958.
Conrad Birdie (Jesse Pearson), the Elvis/Conway Twitty character, is drafted and the nation's teenagers go haywire. Looking to cash in on the hysteria, Albert (Dick Van Dyke) and his girlfriend (Janet Leigh) organize a nationwide contest in which one lucky girl wins a farewell kiss from Conrad on the "Ed Sullivan Show".
Kim (Ann-Margret) turns out to be that lucky girl and Conrad's whole entourage moves into her quiet, Midwestern home--much to the chagrin of her ever-irritable father (Paul Lynde) and her jealous boyfriend (Bobby Rydell). The result is chaos and a series of hilarious complications.
Van Dyke and Lynde had both been in the play, Ann-Margret went on to act opposite of the real Elvis, with a cameo by Ed Sullivan and a scene where speed is given to a turtle! The RCA vinyl soundtrack was a big seller.
