Elvis (DVD)(1979)
Users say:
The Movie is a great 1979 film starring Kurt Russell as Elvis Presley, offering a realistic perspective rarely seen. Russell's performance is the best rendition of Elvis ever created, and it is a must-have for any serious collection of quality films. It is also a great tribute to Elvis, with a detailed and heartfelt portrayal.
Tracing Presley's life from his impoverished childhood to his meteoric rise to stardom to his triumphant return to Las Vegas, Elvis features Shelley Winters (Gladys Presley), Season Hubley (Priscilla Presley), Bing Russell (Kurts real-life father as Vernon Presley), Pat Hingle (Colonel Tom Parker), Joe Mantegna (Memphis Mafia member Joe Esposito) and Ed Begley Jr. (drummer D.J. Fontana) in an all-star supporting cast for an effort that garnered numerous Emmy nominations including Outstanding Lead Actor for Russell. Restored from the Original Film Elements.
