What is the movie Elvis about?
The 2022 movie follows the life of Elvis Presley, a legendary American actor and rock & roll musician. Colonel Tom Parker, his manager, was the narrator of the story.
Presley spent the majority of his youth in the most impoverished areas of Mississippi, where he was mainly raised by his loving mom Gladys. Presley found comfort in comic books, particularly the stories of Captain Marvel Jr., and particularly in music. His affinity with Beale Street in Memphis, where African-American songs are played, causes him to be mocked by his contemporaries after relocating with his family to Memphis.
Colonel is a carnival "grifter" at the time, imagining himself as a contemporary P. T. Barnum. Parker recognizes Presley's breakthrough ability when he observes Elvis "sounding black" on "That's All Right," despite being teamed with country artist Hank Snow. That night, Parker witnesses Presley play at a "Louisiana Hayride," where he discovers a great singer with strong sex appeal.
