New Official Trailer for Eugene Jarecki's Excellent Elvis Doc 'The King'

“You have no idea how hard he hit American culture.” Oscilloscope Labs has released the official US trailer for a documentary titled The King, formerly known as Promised Land when it first premiered at last year’s Cannes Film Festival. This doc is the latest made by Eugene Jarecki (The Trials of Henry Kissinger, Why We Fight, Reagan, The House I Live In) who delivers a deeply engaging, uber-intelligent, thoughtful documentary comparing Elvis Presley’s rise & fall over his life to the rise & fall of America. It’s a fascinating, thought-provoking, and considerably entertaining film framed around taking Elvis’ 1963 Rolls Royce around the country to explore the places he frequented. I saw this film in Cannes last year and loved it, one of the most intriguing docs I’ve seen in a while, featuring so much intelligent discussion and discourse. A must see. ›››
