How could Elvis perform without showing all his talent?!!! Austin was wonderful in every movie but this scene is amazing!! Deserves to win the Oscar!!

It's a movie! 90% of scenes and events were ACCURATE! 10% maybe were Dramatic License!! Allowable! There was NO FALSE ADVERTISING! Thjs was not a commercial! Been a fan 50yrs pretty much know what was real and what was not. Also ALWAYS good to actually. FACT CHECK before commenting. Movie was beyond fabous!!, My Opinion

I’ve been watching KZread videos about the Elvis movie since it was in the theaters but this is the first side-by-side of Elvis and Austin singing “Trouble” (this is Austin singing and it’s on the ELVIS movie album). So much fun to watch and it was great to see Gladys and Dodger in the audience back in the 50’s. Excellent! There also is a video of Elvis singing “Trouble” in King Creole but my favorite is the one when he sings it during the ‘68 Comeback Special.

it's a great scene, remember it's a biopic not a documentary; what they did was to put many concerts reactions in one.

Exactly. That's what Baz said at Cannes. Russwood had to be a "compilation" of all of Elvis's concerts. He was even warned by a judge to not make any obscene moves or he'd be arrested (per EP's girlfriend Juanita, in her memoir). There were always warrants drawn up for his arrest, his impact was so volatile at the time.

Yes austin did get all the moves down for sure fantastic performance.. I loved the movie BUT... Many things were off... as in Elvis was not lonely they separated in 72 him and Priscilla divorced in 73 He met Linda Thompson in 72 dated from 72 - 76 so it comes off to new fans that He was sad depressed and lonely because they ended off the movie with the separation as a Lifetime fan I hate they did that because now all I see are new fans saying aww He was so sad lonely and depressed as that is the way he was portrayed in the movie .... HE was happy funny loving loved his fans more than anything... to leave it off like that really upset me I've loved him since the 70's as a little girl ... I was 10 when He passed away I found My Mom & Dad crying my Dad never cried and it scared me then they told us and we all cried the whole world stopped and mourned on August 16, 1977... We watched the funeral on Tv I remember it like yesterday... understand we didn't have internet media etc all we had was TV record player stereo and lucky to get to see him in concert which my mom and dad did in 1975... ELVIS WAS OUR WORLD....He was the first... and My grandparents experienced it first hand... and my elders in my family... My Dad owned all his records his music was going all the time in our home... continued that my whole life My boys 32 & 27 LOVE him and know so much history about him through me.... Elvis's cousin Billy Smith was so mad about the movie he went and He said that was not the Elvis I knew and grew up with and he is the only surviving original Memphis Mafia member.... Plus Gladys was his aunt / Gladys Love Smith Presley he said SHE WAS NOT A DRUNK... THAT PISSED HIM OFF and it would me too if she were my kin.. Billy lived at Graceland grew up with him was with him touring on movie sets constantly but Billy has a youtube channel -- Elvis fans matter where he tells real stories about Elvis and they are hilarious

I’ve liked Elvis since I was a little kid (having been born in the 60’s)…even got to go to Graceland in 1978…had a few albums, etc… but this movie has made now me a MAJOR Elvis fan! I’ve watched the movie I don’t know how many times, and am listening to Elvis’ music at work. I am utterly amazed at what a complex, intelligent, spiritual man he was. I’m even planning a trip to Graceland. Thank you for this videos!

This scene was very accurate however, it did not occur in russwood altho he did go a concert there. The riot we see happened in Florida, so this " trouble" scene was a compilation of several concerts cobbled together. Baz even said that in an interview. Nothing about elvis was made up but for the movie, presented in a way for audiences who never saw elvis in the 50s performing. My mom who is 94 remembers elvis being on Louisiana Hayride. That was a very long time ago and Baz had to use whatever old footage they could get but also listened to people who were with elvis back then and many others who have written about those days. Priscilla knows the most from the 60s on but who is still alive from the 50s? Elvis did not care for Hollywood and steered clear of all that. A lot of what Baz used came from Jerry Schilling, Priscilla and bios and real life home movies and "documentary" type footage. When Elvis knew he was being filmed he would be normal and funny but behaved. In private he was moody, and temperamental and impatient but always a kind person.

Trouble WAS introduced in king creole. He sang it. For the movie they used Russwood for him to perform, that's accurate but the riot happened in Florida. Makes no difference to me. Nothing was invented just to show rebellion or what he was going thru as a new artist. So much did happen to Elvis, Baz had a lot to choose from.

Elvis sang "Trouble" in the King Creole movie in 1958.

So sad how little footage there is of Elvis during this period. Great comparison nonetheless.

Strange always Elvis was one of my favorites, the king, but watching Austin I don't know which is more mesmerizing to look.

Wow I didn't know that there's a video for the original one. Great movie by the way

I loved this scene from the movie, but was wondering (as a person who didn't know a lot about Elvis), did Elvis really lie on the stage and roll around? Did he really grab that RCA dog (which was hilarious)? Did he really get down on his knees at the edge of the stage? Apparently the scene is based on things that did happen at some point--not necessarily on that night, but at some point. If I judge correctly, it looks like (in the movie) that the police put a big rope down the center of the audience--black people on one side, white people on the other. Then when everyone started rocking out, people started jumping over the rope and that's when the police pulled out the night sticks and started beating people up. Did this happen at an Elvis concert? I'd like to hear more about it.

@SheenaRea

Жыл бұрын

Yes, Elvis did do some raunchy things with the dog statue, but I'm not sure that it happened at Russwood. That scene is a composite of many of his other concerts. Baz said he watched alot of footage of Elvis being "crazy" at his concerts: lying on the stage, gyrating around, singing to the women, going nuts; so Baz wanted to include that "vibe" in the Russwood scene. -- As for the roped-off sections for blacks/whites, I'm not sure that happened at Russwood. However, most of Presley's venues in the South were at fairs and festivals which had black/white sections only. The Alabama-Mississippi Dairy Fairs had roped-off areas separating the blacks from the whites. Accounting sheets of the southern venues where Elvis played typically showed a "black only" and "white only" section in their theaters, typical for those times. Here again I believe Baz used that idea in the Russwood scene, to show the separation of the races, underscored with clips of Senator John Eastland's anti-black rhetoric. The people breaking through the ropes and dancing with each other, who knows? Was this artistic license?

Phenomenal!

Wish they included Elvis singing Dixieland

Butler was amazing, and kudos for Tom Hanks as well! Only Hanks could make you despise Colonel Parker!!

The movie is applying the lyrics to EP's own support for desegregation.

Until I saw this movie I didn't really know to much about Elvis. After watching this movie I started researching Elvis and talking to grandparents and people from that time. It was all fascinating. I've watched Elvis movies and even that horrible Priscilla movie. That one was just all around bad. Bad acting, bad representation of Elvis. This movie Elvis really got you thinking. Brilliant job by Austin Butler he should have won an Oscar. If you haven't caught it the movie is on Netflix right now.

I'll be honest, I didn't think the movie was entirely successful. I think it was a mistake to tell the story from the colonel's perspective and It was undoubtedly one of Tom Hanks' worst performances, he had way too much screen time and the bizarre accent was so distracting, especially when the real colonel had a southern US accent not a weird Dutch/US hybrid accent. It makes the choice to go with the poorly performed accent even stranger. That said, Austin Butler's performance was absolutely exceptional to the point where the movie only works because of the strength of his central performance. He definitely deserved an Oscar.

Conspiracy Theory says to me "He was simply doing his "jobby job" causing a meltdown at the border between the two, but that is just my opinion..." ;)
