I watched one last night called "Rock Baby: Rock It" from 1957.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050908/
The plot was threadbare and the acting talent was non existent, it could have passed for an Ed Wood film, however it was filmed in Dallas in 1956 and features a bunch of local musical talent that is actually really good.
A guy named Johnny Carroll does a perfect Elvis impersonation and a ton of other acts appear, more than half the movie is made up of musical performances and that really makes it worthwhile.
The movie is terrible but it's still a facinating snapshot of that era in R&R history and a lot of fun to watch! :thmbsp:
