Most swaggering rock— Jailhouse Rock, featuring that rebel rock rouser, Elvis Presley. * Most patriotic rock—Plymouth Rock, which plays a sort of rockin’ role behind Daniel Day- Lewis and Winona Ryder in The Crucible.

The dust of ancient Egypt, that is, where The Rock rules in the titular role of The Scorpion King.
