    It makes me sad that Baz hasn’t been recognized by many of the award shows, especially the Academy. He did a phenomenal job of putting together a stunning movie and recognizing he had found his ‘Elvis’ when he saw Austin’s audition. Baz will always be this year’s Best Director to me.

So happy he has blessed us with this movie, and his documentary. Thank you Baz. 💕

      I am sorry but l will have to disagree with you on 1 very important issue here ! I agree that Austin is a very humble and talented man and May l add very good looking 😮but l disagree that the movie brought Elvis back to us !!! I am a 75 year old senior who has thought Elvis was the Man ever since the age of 5 ‘In that era if you were a Elvis Fan you woke up loving Elvis so did most of our parents especially after Elvis went into the Army and served his country ‘My daddy had great admiration for Elvis in fact decades earlier my dad was Stationed in the same place as EP (F Germany )now when all these people are saying that the New Elvis movie brought him back to his long time long ago roots (Fans ) No No No Cause you know why ???? Elvis never left us old Fans 😮 and l am sure that Lisa Marie felt that way too “ My Goodness he was her everything her dad for god’s sake except for only her kids ‘ so how could he come back when he didn’t leave in the first place ??? Nothing against that sweet nice young beautiful “Austin l adore him ! but thats the way l know it and l am sticking to it ! God Bless America and God Bless the Presley’s 🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕🕺🕺🕺

From Rags to riches , from a Jack to a king , when elvis struggled his way through all that grief of being different ……to finally making sure that everyone had to listen to him , he made sure that all the cynics had no choice but to deal with it and with that he unknowingly made a platform for every band and artist after him to express themself however they chose fit!!!!

    Indeed Elvis lived 42 years, but his career( public life) was half of that , which is totally mind-blowing, since in those days there were no special effects in stage performances or movies. It was the hardest working era for artists and to the day Elvis is the only singer and actor with the most concerts and cinema roles. Elvis lived a mythical life - Baz said! Thank you everyone involved into creating this masterpiece for honoring Elvis with full respect and responsibilty! Tears of joy watching this documentary and hopefully the 4 hour version of the movie will be released someday.

    This movie is so amazing! The amazing thing about it is, it is a story for our parents and eventually grandparents but also for the actual joung people and me also, an 80s girl. And the director did a perfect combination of Elvis time, when he lived and the actual time with the old music and some actual RnB and Hip Hop Songs he moved in. The actor of ELvis is perfect. First I thought he couldn`t do it but I fell in love with Elvis again, like I was a teen years ago and my Mum showed me the Music and the Films of Elvis himself. The last Scene, with the great Elvis on his last concert singing makes me cry a lot. He looked so sad and also so happy. Elvis died, when he was my age. YOU DID A GREAT JOB, BAZ LUHRMAN!!!!

    I just watched this amazing film again yesterday before the Oscars, and sat in disbelief watching the show as the movie was passed over in every category that is was nominated for. It is simply stunning that Elvis not did win for Costume Design, or Production Design or Editing. Then there is the fact that Baz did not even get nominated for Best Director, and of course Austin turned in the the authentic complete acting performance of the year, maybe of the decade. What a wonderful gift the creators of this film gave us all.

He recorded 700+ songs, starred in 33 movies, did 757 Vegas-Nevada shows, did 917 concerts (240 cities/41 states). It's like he was superhuman. How does someone do all of that in 22 years?

  • @mikem957

    John Lennon said it best. "Before Elvis, there was nothing". That's not a knock on black musicians who heavily inspired him. It means that there was no individual who stood out, who took dares, who caused controversy, who broke down color barriers and crossed political and religious lines, and who singlehandedly changed the world before like Elvis did. Without Elvis there would have never been a Rock and Roll movement that lead to the rise of the Civil Rights movement that introduced to the world MOTOWN and Dr. King. People today, especially black people, have no idea just what all Elvis went through, the abuse he took, and all he accomplished and how it made everyone's lives in America better. Without Elvis there would have never been a Michael Jackson, especially since he took most of Elvis's moves, or a Prince, or The Beatles or Garth Brooks or Beyonce, etc. Everything that is done today goes back to Elvis. EVERYTHING! It's almost biblical when you take a good deep look at it. This is also why he's the most admired, most loved and also the most hated due to misunderstanding and jealousy.

Dr. King's right hand man, Andrew Young, is on record in 1965 at Congress stating that Elvis and R&R did more for race relations in America than even the church did. Elvis also received a Civil Rights honor in ATL in 1973 for his contributions. Young said that R&R opened the doors for the movement and that Elvis was the leader. Little Richard called Elvis a "champion to black music" and a "great integrator ".

    To me Elvis is the greatest movie ever created!!! Everything about it is magical, mesmerizing, mind-blowing, perfect, etc. And Austin Butler is taking your breath away as Elvis every single time you watch the movie...he truly channeled Elvis's heart and soul and became him on screen! He deserves to get an Oscar this year without nominations, Academy should just give it to him because no one deserves it more than him. I can't even imagine how Austin did it even with the amount of work he did...the way he put all that he has in him, his heart, soul, his life in it, is truly incredible, astonishing, unprecedented! Thanks to this movie I've seen the real Elvis, the incredible, kind, caring person he was. I knew the icon and legend of Elvis but I had no idea of how (with all the happiness he had of course) tragic the latest years of his life has been, how lonely he was and how people took advantage of him...it's devastating! This movie touched my soul like no other movie did before. I've watched it many many times now, and every time I'm starting literally bawling non stop, starting from when Priscilla leaves Elvis to the very end of the movie and my heart is breaking for Elvis every time. This movie have the biggest impact on me! So thank you to each and everyone who worked on it for gifting us this MASTERPIECE!!!

    Everyone who made this movie and acted deserve an Oscar! What's really sad is Elvis was loved by so many but inside he was lonely and died lonely. He looked so unhealthy at the end. Coronel Parker caused some of it or most of it. Austin did an awesome job. Elvises spirit was in him the whole time and while practicing.

      I could not agree more...Austin is spectacular.

It's honestly astounding. Sooo happy he won the Golden Globe :-) best regards!

    My personal opinion, I liked the movie, I thought the director did a phenomenal job and the actors were great, especially Austin. The director I think took a lot of liberties with it, I didn't care for how he portrayed some of the people and I think he added a lot of drama where it probably didn't actually exist in the real lives of the people portrayed here but it is entertaining I have to say as long as you take some of it with a grain of salt. The director added some of his over the top touches which I thought were very interesting but in no way reflects reality. I've watched it twice and I'll probably watch it again, maybe many more times. We'll see how it holds up to the test of time.

    I am so impressed with this movie as a unique telling of Elvis Presley’s story . Austin Butler conveys Elvis’s humanity in such a moving way. So heartfelt.
    I am of an age where Elvis was part of the soundtrack of my life from day one and I was about to leave for first year of college when he passed. His passing felt like the end of particular era and transition to a new one. I didn’t follow Elvis closely growing up; thanks to this movie, listening to the broad range of his music, his talent, amazing voice and bold presence, I have a new appreciation and respect.

Compré la película y la he visto 32 veces y siempre que la veo parece que fuera la primera vez ojalá también estrene su versión d 4 horas aquí en México es una obra d arte la película Elvis y como dije antes ustedes son ganadores la academia lo sabe porque todo el mundo lo sabe la mejor película d Elvis que dirigió el exelente director Baz lurhmann y que se estrenó en el 2022 la mejor película d Elvis Presley d todos los tiempos y el mejor actor que retrato perfecto a El si Austin Butler 👏👏👏👏👏♥️♥️♥️♥️

    Im 100 percent behind Austin (Amazing dedication and performance) BUT credit needs to go to BAZ Luhrmann to have the grit and talent to bring this story of Elvis the phenomena to the world. Most dont get Elvis past the performer but he was so much more and many dont understand the influence he had & how it has opened the pathways to modern music and culture. I have read just about everything ever written and it has always struck me how many fans had no concept of what he was doing and did do. We wont see this happen again in my lifetime. Its been a fascinating journey started when I was 19 when Elvis died and now 46 yrs on it has all come together in this amazing feature length film and this Just a Boy from Tupelo👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Oh, and Tom Hanks, hats off. He made me so mad at Col. Tom Parker. Austin Butler made me laugh and cry. This movie will be frequented by me many, many times in the future.

    Austin Butler's complete and insane dedication to honour Elvis work is just beyond words. How many actors out there is willing to do what Austin did in "Elvis". Even sang all the songs by himself with voice so much like Elvis. Austin is Elvis!! Brings us to tears to watch Austin as Elvis. If preventing him to receive an Oscar is because he is young and not as experience as the older Hollywood stars, then great injustice has been done to this young man and Oscar's judges are outdated. We have never watched a movie so many times and still get the chills and excitement as "Elvis". All thanks to Austin's dedication and Baz's super skill as the best director of all times.

    Elvis was a phenomenon, there has never and will never be anyone like him. He transcends time and space and just draws you in in such a way that you feel nothing but awe and amazing, unconditional love. Austin captured Elvis in a way that was so unique and so special and he and this incredible movie deserve all of the accolades and deserve to win all the Oscars for which they have been nominated. That would be the ultimate way to not only honor Elvis's memory but to honor the time, love, sacrifice and artisry that went into this movie.

I watched this movie twice in the theater (cried both times) and I’ve streamed it a handful of times. I can honestly say that this is one of my favorite movies of all time.

    I hate when people say this movie skipped over his drug problem, that’s not the point of the movie and if that’s your complaint you missed the point. The drugs were a symptom of a larger illness in his head, his mentality made him a star and his mentality drove him but also caused him to use drugs. Why focus on the symptom when the cause is so much more interesting?
