Dialogue
[edit]- Elvis: When I first met you, I didn't like you at all. I thought you were the most arrogant, selfish, ungrateful little bastard I'd ever met. [pauses] Then I started to remember how much I was like that at your age.
- Johnny: Elvis, man. What happened at the talent show - thanks. I know you did that for me.
- Elvis: [frowns] Hell no, kid. I didn't do that for you. I did that for rock and roll.
- Elvis: Maybe I ought to go back to the old way of doing things. Really rock them again!
- Jerry: [uneasy] Hell, you can't afford to take a chance like that, E. What about your image?
- Elvis: Can't afford it? Man, when I was broke I could afford to do anything I wanted? [bitterly, to himself] Now I'm a millionaire. Can't afford to do a damned thing.
