Spinout

Spinout


(aka California Holiday)

MGM, 1966, Color, 90 minutes, **½

Released October, 1966



Race car driver Mike McCoy (Elvis) has it all: a sleek, sexy Cobra 427 - and a trio of beautiful Misses eager to become his Mrs.! But can this single-minded speedster remain single while he's pursued by a posse with the itch to get hitched? Elvis neatly handles all the curves in this delightful romantic escapade featuring nine hit tunes including "Spinout," "Stop, Look and Listen" and "Never Say Yes."
