Interesting look at the man behind Elvis, Colonol Tom Parker. It became more and more obvious as we went through the film how much Elvis was manipulated by him. He was with Elvis from when he was just starting out and was there when he first became famous meaning that Elvis trusted and relied on him. It was only later in life after he married Priscilla that he started to see that Colonel Tom Parker wasn’t as supportive as he first seemed.
I know a lot of people weren’t keen on this film because it glossed over Elvis’s life quite a lot, but to me it was obvious that Elvis wasn’t the sole focus of this film. It was beautifully shot, although it did jump around quite a lot, but I think this was to make the film shorter otherwise it would have been over 4 hours I think. It was 2 and a half hours long, but it absolutely flew by!

"I get all the Queen records mixed up because there are so many neat songs but there never was, in my opinion, a consistent groove to one of the records where you could clearly identify a distinct period during those first few. But the operatic approach to Queen totally changed how I viewed heavy rock and I still think that Brian May was ahead of his time with his weird picking, guitar tones and harmonies. Of the later Queen material, I was listening to 'Who Wants To Live Forever' the other day and Freddie's voice – every time I hear it, my eyes fill up. It's so incredibly emotional and that's what we, as musicians, want to elicit from the listener. Freddie and Queen were such a huge part of my life."
