CHANGE OF HABIT
May 27, 2013  | By David Bianculli

Encore, 8:00 p.m. ET

 
Any time the conversation turns to truly bizarre movie teamings (then again, maybe you have less geeky friends than I do, and your conversations never turn there), this 1969 movie is one of the trump cards to remember. It’s the answer to the question, “What film co-starred Elvis Presley and Mary Tyler Moore?” (Bonus question: “And had Mary Tyler Moore playing a nun?”) Hard as all that is to believe, try this: Elvis played a doctor. And the movie was made only one year before the Dick Van Dyke Show actress reinvented herself as the titular star of The Mary Tyler Moore Show.
