It was the third and last movie that Elvis made in Hawaii. By agreeing to make this film, Colonel Parker hoped to replicate the success of the 1961 film Blue Hawaii.
During the filming set, in the summer of 1965, a Hawaiian ceremony for Elvis took place.
In the photo of the ceremony we see Elvis in the center, Marty Lacker on the left, and Charlie Hodge on the right.
Elvis was always accompanied by members of the Memphis Mafia in all his films and we can always see them on screen, as extras, as extras or playing small roles.
