Kissin' Cousins

Elvis takes on... Elvis!

Seeing double? You will be when Elvis Presley takes on two roles in the backwoods romp Kissin' Cousins.

In his 15th film, the King plays dark-haired Air Force Lt. Josh Morgan and blond good ol' boy Jodie Tatum. On an assignment that's "like biting into a beehive," Josh wants to negotiate with the Tatums for military use of their Smokey Mountain homestead as a missile site. But Jodie is right wary of federal revenooers and of this lookalike who claims to be kin. A fistful of tunes (Barefoot Ballad, [It's A] Long Lonely Highway, Tender Feeling, the title song and 6 others), some whoop-it-up dancing and 13 mountain cuties called Kittyhawks add to the downhome delights. As do the stars. Which means Elvis. And Elvis.
