Despite seeing other docs and reading several books about Elvis, I actually learned some things from this one. But what I really took away from it is that no matter the background or the talent of an artist, the music industry is likely to chew them up and spit them out. The film makes is abundantly clear that most of Elvis' films and his long term gigs in Vegas were cash grabs that he wasn't happy or creatively fulfilled doing. "Colonel" Tom Parker's behavior when Elvis passed away is indicative of his complete disregard for Elvis as a person and it isn't difficult to see parallels in today's music industry. Though it exploited him, his music will live forever; this doc allows you to get to know him a little better.
