“It’s a movie about a myth, one in which Elvis represents a dream of liberation — musical, sexual, racial — and how that dream was corrupted and commodified by carny-barker capitalists sociopathically sucking every last dollar dry, leaving the singer a druggy, bloated parody of his former promise, catatonic in front of the television. It’s the story of America.” – WBUR’s Arts & Culture, 06/23/2022
