Clambake (1967) is a half-baked variation on Mark Twain's The Prince and the Pauper, with Elvis cast as a poor little rich boy who wants to find a woman who loves him for his personality rather than his money. He trades places with a struggling water ski instructor (Will Hutchins) and soon finds himself vying with an unctuous millionaire (Bill Bixby) for the attention of a would-be gold digger (Shelley Fabares).
There are no extras on six of the seven discs except for theatrical trailers; however, the Love Me Tender DVD offers an audio commentary and a handful of featurettes related to Elvis and the film.
