Easy Come, Easy Go

Description
In “Easy Come, Easy Go” Elvis hits the high seas a Lt. (L.G.) Ted Jackson, and underwater demolitions expert who sets out with the skippers’ daughter to find gold in a sunken wreck during his final service dive. Entangled in an action-packed adventure of romance and intrigue, the pair must battle adversaries on land and underwater as they attempt to claim the treasures before their plan is foiled. Featuring the songs “Love Machine” and the title tune “Easy Come, Easy Go.” Amazon.com
Not the worst Elvis picture, but not near the top, either. This is the one with Elvis as a Navy frogman, diving for sunken treasure–which means lots of underwater photography (inspired by Thunderball, perhaps?). What’s fun about it is seeing Elvis collide with the summer of love: he falls in with a beatnik buddy (Pat Harrington in a goatee) and meets a commune of artsy hippie types; they stage obscure “happenings,” and Elvis calls ‘em “kooks.” It says something, though, when the musical highlight is a number called “Yoga Is as Yoga Does,” staged in Elsa Lanchester’s groovy yoga class. E.P. looks indifferent to the proceedings, an understandable reaction given the painful quality of the comedy (especially the old sea salt who’s never been on water). The red Dodge convertible is sweet, however. –Robert Horton

The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra

Amazon.com
In “The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra,” producer and director Robin Lehman focuses on the unique qualities of each instrument and the individuals behind it, from the instrument-maker who created it to the musician who skillfully channels its sound. Narration by conductor Andrew Davis and interviews with acclaimed musicians such as Yo-Yo Ma provide insight and flavor to describe the instruments and their role in the sound of each orchestra. The in-depth approach not only reflects Lehman’s award-winning filmmaking, but also his 10 years of study in Paris with Nadia Boulanger on musical composition. Lehman and Davis conclude The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra with a rendition of Benjamin Britten’s monumental work of the same title, exemplifying the beauty and magnificent nature of the orchestra in its finest and most glorious moment – performing in concert.

This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com’s standard return policy will apply.
