Plot

Elvis Presley plays Deke Rivers, a delivery man who is discovered by publicist Glenda Markle (Lizabeth Scott) and country-western musician Tex Warner (Wendell Corey). Lizabeth Scott (born September 29, 1922) is an American actress who achieved much success within the Film noir genre as well as other Wendell Corey ( March 20, 1914 – November 8, 1968) was an American Actor. Deke is a handsome young man with a fast car and even faster fists, but what really sets him apart is his voice and charisma. One day he's seen singing, and word quickly spreads of his talent throughout the small town in which he works.

Markle and Warner, believing in his potential, want to promote the talented newcomer to fame and fortune, giving him every break they feel he deserves. At first, Warner, a washed-up country music entertainer, sees Deke's addition to the act as merely a side act, and that Warner will return to the limelight. He learns the painful truth after Glenda tearfully tells him that the promoters she works with don't want Warner anymore. . . and that Deke is their only shot left at the big-time.

Deke, who has been resistant of the duo's efforts, agrees to join their traveling show after Glenda arranges to have him fired from his job. One day, while in a malt shop, Deke is approached by Wayne (Ken Becker), a young punk trying to get him to sing for his date. When his request is gently rebuffed by Deke's friend Skeeter, Wayne shoves him to the floor. To keep peace, Deke agrees to sing, drawing the applause of the patrons. When he finishes, he asks Wayne what he does for a living. Wayne tells Deke he works in automotive accessories with his father. Deke tells Wayne that he gets paid to sing, and he feels that Wayne should properly pay him by putting a new set of seatcovers on his car. Wayne asks him what color he wants, figuring yellow as his color of choice. Enraged at the implication that he's a coward, Deke viciously beats Wayne until he passes out slumped on the jukebox. However, Deke is not charged by police in the incident.

Romantic complications arise as Susan (Dolores Hart), another singer in the group, offers him devoted admiration as Glenda leads him on with promises of a golden future. Dolores Hart (born Dolores Hicks on October 20, 1938 in Chicago Illinois) is an American Roman Catholic Nun However, Deke has major trust issues. He sees his singing as a hobby, and not a future, resisting Glenda's efforts to bring him forward, such as pandering to audiences. Glenda desperately tries to get close to him but to no avail. Fed up with what he feels are constant efforts by others to use him, Deke drives off one day, missing a gig.

Upset with what she feels was a careless abandonment, Glenda finally learns the truth when Deke takes her to a small burial ground one evening, after she demands an explanation for the missed gig. They come upon a stone bearing little more than the name "Deke Rivers", but the implication is clear. . . the real Deke Rivers was a lonely drifter buried by his friends, showing parallels between the two. Deke reveals to Glenda that he was brought up in an orphanage for most of his childhood, and that his real name is Jimmy Tompkins. He goes on to tell her that never having experienced the love of a family, he made a decision to break out one day and make it on his own. He happened on the gravestone, and said that he became Deke Rivers there, "burying" Jimmy Tompkins at the site.

Weeping at the depth of Deke's sad past, Glenda tells him that it's time for him to grow up and stop running away, and that his role in the show is the closest he will likely ever come to family. She reveals that she had him fired because she truly believed in him. . . something he's never really known. Hearing the truth in her words, Deke agrees to return to the show, which grows in popularity due to Deke's success.
