      My mother went to see Elvis in the early 70’s when I was a small child. I guess she couldn’t find a sitter because she took me w/her. I still remember this because to me it was so confusing & a little bit scary. At that age I could not understand why my mother was screaming & crying. We knew the lady who sat next to us & my mother asked if she would watch me while Mom went to the stage. She returned sobbing & had a scarf that Elvis had given her, one of the token ones he gave to the screaming women. I wondered if someone had hurt her but no, Mom had gotten a kiss on the cheek. She did not wash that cheek for weeks & covered it with a waterproof bandage whenever she took a shower. Decades later I still remember this so vividly. I will never forget the affect Elvis had on my mother!

    I grew up in the ‘50’s. Played “Love Me Tender” and “Hound Dog” on a 78 record player. Attended one of his first concerts. Friends had pictures of Elvis all over their bedrooms. People today have no idea what a huge talent and influence he had on culture. The movie was spectacular. Austin Butler is amazing and Tom Hanks is so good as The Colonel you love to hate him. I would love to see Austin’s complete performances of Elvis’ songs. I hope Baz will release them on You Tube at some point. The movie should be Best Picture and should sweep the Oscars.

    Austin did a fantastic job portraying Elvis. As he was talking, sometimes you can hear Elvis' voice come through at interviews. He stated that hecisca quiet guy, that he is a wallflower. He said he could not even dance, but that's okay...just swing those hips. He is adorable and humble. Austin really was able to feel Elvis' soul. His playing Elvis is as far away as his playing Tex in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Amazing. What a humble man he is but then again, so was Elvis. Elvis loved to entertain. Austin did such a good job with all that energy Elvis had that after he finished the movie, he got sick. I was not disappointed.

      As Tex, when on the horse talking to Brad Pitt, you get the feeling he's edgy and maybe dangerous. Then later on the car when Leo is telling at him to move the car he seems confused and apologetic. It's only when the crazy girls tell him it's Rick Dalton that he gets excited. When he's holding the gun and saying I'm the devil, its like Austin flipped a switch and became evil. Now that's good acting.

    Austin Butler Amazing amazing actor I have never seen an emotional delivery so real that I managed to live that time for more than 02:30 minutes dancing dancing singing acting with faces and mouths and visceral expressions a spectacle of acting Elvis Presley deserves this star that appeared in the movies.

    I finally watched the movie... I hesitated because I couldnt imagine how another Elvis movie could be told...
    I thought we had heard it all, I was wrong! This was a great story. Put things in to real perspective. It was unfreaking beleivable!! Iv seen many impersonators...visited and then lived in Vegas for several years, nobody could ever 'nail' his moves. This was the best Iv ever seen. I dont know how he did it! His voice, mannerisms and moves were unbeleivable.
    I really like the style they did the movie in... Kinda reminded me of the old movie Zoot Suit.
    Great job, Im pleasently supprised !!
    I was 9 when he died, I still remember it very vividly. I heard it on the radio at the neighbors house, I ran home hysterical to tell my Mom!! I dont know how 1 man could still effect me the way he does. His last performances bring me to tears everytime. I avoid watching them for that reason. Iv been crying off and on for an hour now and I will have work on getting him out of my head.
    We still love you Elvis!!
    Thank you for doing this movie, I dont want his memory to ever fade.......

    I am such a massive fan of elvis presley. I remember when i was in my twenties I went out with my friends to this dance. They played elvis music and i did his moves.. when i got back to my seat. there was a note from someone a guy i think.. he wrote i have the female version of elvis moves. I was shocked.. a great moment. I kept the note for a bit. 💟😘

      He has Elvis’ same face shape. His eyes are even squinty like his. The only thing is Austin’s are more narrow on his face whereas Elvis’ were more wide set. Otherwise spot on. Obviously there can only be one Elvis but he got close.

    One thing I learned recently is that according to Elvis' co-stars in the early movies, he was actually quite a good, natural actor with real potential. But the colonel crushed it. Directors wanted to cast him in more edgy and challenging roles, but the colonel said no. That makes me sad.

      I watched King Creole the other day, and I've seen several of Elvis' movies, definitely watch that one and you can see that he could have become a serious film star, he had the screen presence and acting prowess to go MUCH further than he did. It is a real shame that CTP had so much control over the direction of his career.

      @@teresamorrison2676 the colonel knew the big money was in music and touring. He wanted half of Elvis income. He knew if Elvis got involved in movies he'd lose access to Elvis. But why Elvis agreed to that was a mystery. The colonel held something over Elvis in my opinion.

    I went to see the film this evening, I was blown away by Austin's portrail of Elvis...it was a daunting film I will never forget...I must say though I never liked the so called Colonel, even back in the 70s....and this film sealed it for me..imo...I feel he manipulated Elvis career for his own advantage, a cold calculated person., who used and abused Elvis and his money and Elvis's father was the same, everyone used him ,no wonder he was lonely. I don't think Gladys wanted her boy to be famous and I think she could see through Mr.Tom Parker...the ending was emotional and I cried for some time later...if this film and the actors and director don't win Oscar's next year, I eat my hat...Good luck Austin

    I wrote a previous comment but I wanted to tell a quick story:
    When I was living in Vegas in about 2005, I was working at The Hilton ( the old international hotel) in the Beauty Salon. I had the privilege to meet a few veteran Hairdressers that had been working there in the 70s. They had personal Elvis stories, One of them was a story about Elvis sending little Lisa Marie to the Salon to get her hair fixed before the show. Later, Elvis walks in to the Salon asking, who did my daughters hair??
    Everyone was shocked. He proceeded to tell me that he was the one who did her hair (the hairdresser thats telling me the story) he nervously tells Elvis, I did her hair. He thought he was gonna definately complain. But to his shock, Elvis say to him, I wanted to thank you for making her look like a little girl, everytime someone does her hair they make her look like a woman. I want you to do her hair from now on. I will save you a VIP ticket to the show tonight.. He was honored but had to go to the show right after his shift and didnt have time to clean up or change clothes. Elvis introduced him to the entire audience as Lisa Maries hairdresser. He expressed how embarressed he was cause he didnt have time to dress up before the show.... Cool story

    I went to this show and fell in love with both Elvis and Austin Butler. Elvis was always very handsome but just to hear the epic voice and then Austin today embodied it and just to hear him talk now really is such a turn on. I am now obsessed. I have been on Amazon searching prints of them both and want to buy them and theme my bedroom of them. I was a child when he died but researching his life is so eye opening and he seemed like such a amazing person. He is someone I think I would love to be able to be in his presence and enjoy his fun spirit. It’s so sad he didn’t get to slowdown and just have a normal life for a while. He did love performing for
    people and it made him so happy but I think it took a toll on him and he just wanted like to be simpler. I also was sad cause it
    seems like he was a womanizer but I really think he thought that it would make him feel love cause I think that was the void he was always trying to feel.

But what I most remember is that as soon as the name Elvis was mentioned later I would just be red in my face !!

    Austin is phenomenal.... there is clearly something very special about him. He captures Elvis's heart, which I think is very close to his own. To me, that is what Elvis had that was so special and endeared him to so many people, young and old. Austin's last scene in the movie is when he is meeting Priscilla in the limo on the tarmac. The rest of the movie is the real Elvis.
