29th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards Nominee
Category
Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role – Austin Butler
Unbelievably good. Granted, I’m not a hard sell. I’m from the South and I love Elvis Presley and the Director Baz Luhrmann.
Poster
Synopsis
The life of American music icon Elvis Presley, from his childhood to becoming a rock and movie star in the 1950s while maintaining a complex relationship with his manager, Colonel Tom Parker.

My Review
Elvis is unbelievably good. Granted, I’m not a hard sell. I grew up in the South and have always loved Elvis Presley. The Director Baz Luhrmann is one of my favorites. I love his visual style and storytelling. I wish they would have spent a bit more time on how the church influenced his music. Austin Butler was phenomenal. At times, I had to keep reminding myself that is not the real Elvis on screen. I can’t wait to see what Austin Butler does next.

Thank You
Thank you to Mr Warner Brothers for giving me access to watch this via Digital Streaming so I could make an intelligent and informed opinion when casting my vote for the 29th Annual SAG Awards.
However, a big, sprawling movie like this REALLY should be seen (and heard) on the Big Screen in a community setting. I wish you had a Screening for me or (at the very least) offered Movie Cash.
