“Flaming Star” is a 1960 American Western film featuring Elvis Presley, Barbara Eden, and Steve Forrest. The movie is based on Clair Huffaker’s 1958 book “Flaming Lance.” Elvis Presley’s portrayal of the mixed-blood character “Pacer Burton” received positive reviews, with critics acknowledging it as one of his better acting performances in a dramatic role. Directed by Don Siegel, the film was initially titled “Black Star.”
“Flaming Star” achieved the 12th position on the box-office charts and was primarily filmed in Utah and Los Angeles. Some scenes were also shot in Wildwood Regional Park in Thousand Oaks, California. In recognition of the film, a road near Wildwood in Thousand Oaks has been named Flaming Star Avenue.
The storyline follows Elvis Presley as Pacer Burton, the son of a Kiowa mother and a Texan father who works as a rancher. Pacer, along with his family, including a half-brother named Clint, leads a typical life on the Texan frontier. However, their lives take an unexpected turn when a neighboring Kiowa tribe begins raiding nearby homesteads. Pacer finds himself caught between two worlds, belonging to both but fully embraced by neither. The film explores the complexities of identity and cultural conflict in the backdrop of the Texan frontier.

Lyrics
Ev’ry man, has a flaming star
A flaming star, over his shoulder
And when a man, sees his flaming star
He knows his time, his time has comeFlaming star, don’t shine on me, flaming star
Flaming star, keep behind me, flaming star
There’s a lot of livin’ I’ve got to do
Give me time to make a few dreams come true
Flaming starWhen I ride, I feel that flaming star
That flaming star, over my shoulder
And so I ride, front of that flaming star
Never lookin’ around, never lookin’ aroundFlaming star, don’t shine on me, flaming star
Flaming star, keep behind me, flaming star
There’s a lot of livin’ I’ve got to do
Give me time to make a few dreams come true
Flaming starOne fine day, I’ll see that flaming star
That flaming star, over my shoulder
And when I see, that old flaming star
I’ll know my time, my time has comeFlaming star, don’t shine on me, flaming star
Flaming star, keep behind me, flaming star
There’s a lot of livin’ I’ve got to do
Give me time to make a few dreams come true
Flaming star
