Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaKathryn Law played a Vegas Audience Member. On "the extras" breaks, the extras were outside talking with each other, and Beau Bridges came out of the Vegas Stage Set and he yelled out hello to the extras. The extras said hello back to him. He seemed to enjoy the extras that the extras casting company got for this movie. The set was fun, the extras felt like they were in Las Vegas watching Elvis perform. The extras really had a blast of a good time. The catered food was good too. They really treated the extras great.

HORRIBLE Depiction of Elvis!
If it weren't for the INCREDIBLE and UNDERRATED actor, Beau Bridges....whom I actually like JUST as much if not MORE than his incredible actor brother, Jeff.... I would NOT have liked this movie AT ALL! EVERYONE knows that Elvis Presley was one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL people (man OR woman) in HISTORY! EVEN in his later days....he was STILL a well-groomed and UNIQUE-looking, handsome man....though far (yet NOT so far....as he looked awesome as late as the end of '76) removed from his earlier days where he was a beyond reproach 'GOD'! But in THIS movie....they made the King look HORRIFIC in his later days....as the actor that played him couldn't hold a CANDLE to the CANDLE illuminating Elvis! It almost made me laugh, but I RESPECT and LOVE Elvis SO/TOO much to even laugh at the IDEA of Elvis! Beau Bridges is just good to great in ANYTHING he's in....so his portrayal of the Colonel was pretty interesting, at LEAST. This movie, to its credit, made me research Colonel Tom Parker more in depth (and I found out some pretty rotten things about him....though WITHOUT the Colonel....there probably would NOT have been the UNPARRALLELLED phenomenon that was/IS Elvis Aron.... NOT 'Aaron', which is STILL a mystery to me that that misspelling is/was on his burial stone/site....as Jesse, his brother that passed shortly before him, had the middle name 'Garon'.... Presley)! So, YES, the portrayal of Elvis and the way they had the actor narrate the movie is a WASH. BRIDGES is what made this movie watchable....and the MYSTIQUE of Elvis....as we (DIE hard Elvis admirers.... BEYOND mere 'fans') know that ANY-THING about Elvis is a must-watch/listen! One of the AMAZING things about Elvis is that we NEVER see, comprehend or can consume the ENTIRETY of what he was/STILL is! So....watch this movie to gain some new insights on Elvis....and the performance of Beau Bridges. THAT'S it! I am 'leaving the building'. After all....in the END....it's ALL...about the KING! Elvis FOREVER!
