It was the best decision he ever made to return to the stage. He was a great performer. No doubt at all. He was much happier after returning. To say he should have continued in movies is ridiculous.

He had the youth still, and the Tallant to have done at least five more films of quality, but he also had the colonel, and he could never dump him Without doing so, any future films were doomed to be, just more of the same old formula.

It wasn't a comeback as Elvis didn't go anywhere. It was a new phase in his career. The correct title is Singer Elvis TV Special.
