First ever, in depth unveiling of the haunting tapestry of tragedy that was the life of Elvis Presley. The truth is paramount in this spellbinding, yet troubling production. Yes, the Emperor had on clothes--even spangles; but alas, his feet were of disintegrating clay. No documentary to date has ever come this close to unraveling the complexities and mysteries of the tangled web of the Presley Phenomenon. The first hand stories told by women who were involved in his life --including long time girl friend Linda Thompson who lived in Graceland several years and Ginger Alden, who discovered his body--are illuminating. The detail and thoroughness of the testimonies of these women along with a number of young teens who had encounters with Elvis of the questionable kind are genuine, authentic and alarming. It is a gutsy stunner. Some of the now grown women seemed to offer excuses for Elvis behavior--almost an endorsement of his actions with the attitude of "If it makes Elvis happy; anything goes"! Most of the girls said, "yes" to Elvis, but a few said, "no" -- one savvy teen walked out of his hotel room with Elvis running after her.
