Elvis By The Presleys

The story of Elvis Presley's extraordinary life is given a new, unique twist with these recollections from his former wife, Priscilla, and daughter Lisa Marie. Originally aired on CBS in 2005, ELVIS BY THE PRESLEY'S offers endlessly fascinating anecdotes from the glamorous pair, while also offering viewers the chance to pour over some rarely seen footage and photographs from the Presley Estate. Footage that didn't make it to the TV show is also included, making this essential viewing for Presleyophiles, with the archive footage of Elvis's home movies providing special interest, as these have never previously been made available for public consumption. Priscilla generously presents her side of the story, offering wonderful insight in what life with The King was like, while Lisa Marie also chips in with a few remembrances of Elvis from her younger days. This is a great chance for Elvis fans to glimpse what life was like within the inner-sanctum of their hero, making this a valuable addition to the welter of documentary footage available on the legendary singer.

    Rated - 3 stars [Highly rated reviewer]

    Suprisingly Honest and In depth.

    This documentary opens with a soft focus, wooden Priscilla Presley saying 'Good evening...and welcome to Graceland'. Yet what follows is not the sentimental fluff piece that those first few minutes suggest. This is a supringly in depth portrait of the personal life of Elvis. I found the documentary left me liking Elvis' character less. He comes across as a domineering, selfish dictator. One is left with the sense of a complex and tragic figure who remains fascinating today. Was interested to see the section on his religious seeking. Watch out for the bizarre inclusion of songs as a way of conveying Elvis' opinion. (e.g. during a section on Elvis bad temper it suddenly flicks to him singing 'If you're looking for trouble, youve come to the right place'). This could be effective if done once or twice, but this technique is used throughout. All that said, this is not just for fans, give this a go.
