Goofs

When Elvis pulls up to the house in the beginning, his girlfriend gets out of the car wearing a maroon pantsuit. When he opens the door and they enter the house, she is wearing blue shorts and a blue workout suit jacket. This was due to scenes that were not used in the film, as this scene also shows Elvis going in the front door; then the next scene shows him coming through Graceland from the back entrance, passing the front door from the inside before heading upstairs. This can be explained by noting Elvis's last hours. He came home, played racquetball in the racquetball building before entering Graceland from the rear entrance and then retreating to his room. This also explains the different clothes that the Ginger Alden character wears.

In this film, teaming up with Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley sings the Sinatra hit, "Withcraft", written by Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh. However, in the closing credits, another "Witchcraft" is mistakenly credited in its place; the B side of Elvis's 1963 hit, "Bossa Nova Baby", also titled "Witchcraft", is a different song that does not appear in this film.

In the scene from Loving You (1957), when Deke Rivers (Elvis Presley) fights with a heckler in front of a juke box, Presley is heard singing "Mean Woman Blues, written by Roy Orbison and later singing "Trouble", in the background. "Trouble" was first performed by Elvis in King Creole (1958), one year later. In "Loving You", the juke box was playing "Mean Woman Blues".

Furry Lewis is playing an Epiphone Dreadnought (most likely a BT-150 Bard) when young Elvis Presley and his friend see him singing Blues in Shakerag. However, the guitar was not produced until the 1970s and is not correct for the time line in the film. It was Lewis's own guitar at the time the movie was released in 1981 coincidentally the year Mr. Lewis passed.

In the brief soda shop scene, set in 1953, there is a late-1970s pinball machine in the corner.
