It's not all negative though, the film shows plenty of highlights, including home movies from his wedding, his return to the concert stage, and his triumphant Aloha From Hawaii TV broadcast. Part of the Elvis: 75th Anniversary DVD Collection, This is Elvis attempts to paint of balanced picture of a brilliant performer who was human and had flaws like anyone else. And in this sense, it largely succeeds. This is a single-disc version that features the theatrical cut and a featurette Behind the Gates of Graceland.
A follow-up to the 1970 release Elvis: That's the Way it Is, another musical-documentary, this film followed Presley as he embarked on a 15-city tour of the United States in April 1972.[1] Elvis on Tour also contains vintage footage of Presley's famous 1956 appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show[1] and pre-tour rehearsal footage.[1]
The working titles of the film were Sold Out and then Standing Room Only, and a soundtrack album was planned with this title, but never released.[1] Due to the release of the album Elvis: As Recorded at Madison Square Garden shortly before filming, which featured many of the songs set to be in the film, Elvis on Tour was the only Presley film not accompanied by some form of official soundtrack release, either in the form of a full album or a single.[1]
Get a Life Why doesnt the person who descirbes this movie retire. The pill popper . Is that all anyone has to say about Elvis. I`d hate to imagine this world without hus music. At least he didnt become a queer/homo like the beatles and rolling stones elton john ect. If you cant say anything good then shut up and retire. He had more gold/platinum records than anyone.Submitted by n shut up and retire. He had more gold/platinum records than anyone.Submitted by "5.46139
