This just might be a good film. Not too big movie for TV because it isn't about whole life of Elvis, only part of it. Any director/writer/producer/actor info?

Is the movie going to be taken in Germany - in the original places? Since they ARE still there and not really much different to the 50ìes?

interesting ....this is where Elvis camed off the track, the loss of his mother, his Jerry Lee Lewis act with Priscilla and of course Medication's. But still all in all he was human but Priscilla childs play, and of course her off spring she's no better then the spring she sprung off of.
