st_martin_aThis came to mind today.
I saw this film when I was about 14 and it's always stayed with me somehow.
King Creole.
This is the opening scene:

(Type into youtube: "Elvis crawfish" if it doesn't work).
There's something about the tone of Elvis's voice and I could identify with his character in this film probably more than any other when I was that age. He was an underdog, a dreamer, an outsider, a bit pretentious... pretty much summed me up. Probably still does. : )
