About ‘Elvis’
Everyone thinks they know the story of the King of Rock and Roll, but it’s never been seen like this before. Tom Parker was just a traveling showman, working his way through the country and scraping together what little he could. His path led him into one of the poorest parts of Mississippi, where he met a young man named Elvis who was obsessed with the influences of Black musicians on the American music scene at the time. Parker realized the potential of this young man, beginning a partnership that would raise the profiles of both.
The movie follows the life and career of Elvis Presley, guided by Parker to fame and fortune. But what does that journey entail from a human perspective? What toll does it take, and how does a person ensure their legacy will remain after they have spent their entire lives trying to build it?
“Elvis” was directed by Baz Luhrmann, the visionary behind “Moulin Rouge” and “The Great Gatsby.” It stars Tom Hanks as Col. Tom Parker and breakout star Austin Butler (“The Carrie Diaries”) as Elvis Presley.
