Love Me Tender was a 1956 Post-Civil War drama that marked the feature film acting debut of Elvis Presley. In the film, Presley stars as a young man who finds himself at odds with his new wife and the Civil War veteran brother who he thought had been killed in the war. The film's cast also included Richard Egan and Neville Brand.
