Description: This book celebrates the film while also examining it for historical accuracy. Learn the backstory of the film, how Austin Butler was chosen to play Elvis Presley, how director Baz Luhrmann came up with the idea for the movie, how the Presley family was involved, and much more about the filmmaking process -- plus a detailed scene-by-scene analysis of the film exploring what is true and what is not true in the movie. Fact vs. 'Fiction in the 2022 ELVIS Movie' contains meticulous research by Trina Young, the author of three other books on Elvis Presley. Out of respect for Elvis, this book clears up any misleading information or artistic license that may confuse people between what is shown in the film and what is true Elvis history. The purpose of this book is to offer a balanced side to the story. After analysing all 86 scenes the author came up with a 'Elvis Movie Truth Score'. Find out the final result yourself by reading the book! With 8-pages of B&W photos, a section with (foot)notes, and a selected bibliography.
