This is Elvis

A postmortem puff piece about the king of rock n' roll. The fictitious framing device lures you in by making the movie seem enticingly personal, and the charming personal footage goes a long way further. Suffering through so many Elvis movies made this even more rewarding as it outlines his rise and fall, even if it's extraordinarily light on criticisms. This is Elvis remains a fascinating time capsule.

Though a faux-documentary, contains some fun inside bits including the only authentic footage of upstairs Graceland. A must for Elvis fans, others may say "No thank you, no thank you very much."
