We don't do a whole lot of movie reviewing here, because well you know it's a music podcast and all, but sometimes we run across a film that is music related, and just too good not to talk about. That's exactly where this film lands amongst music-related movies.
"Elvis: That's Just The Way It Is" takes us all the way back to 1970, and isn't just your typical run-of-the-mill music documentary. After being re-edited in 2001, ETJTWIS let fans take an inside look at the process of just how much went into being the machine that was Elvis Presley. Rare behind-the-scenes footage laid the landscape to several iconic Las Vegas performances. You might think you know "The King Of Rock And Roll" but this film lets us see a side of Elvis that even his most die-hard fans had never seen before.
It's intimate. It's candid, and it's vulnerable. But more importantly and simply put, it's a damn good film. It's season 6, episode 14 of your Granddad's favorite Las Vegas waitress', favorite music podcast. LET'S GO!!!

People say Elvis wasn't original. I'd say he was punk before punk was a thing. He stuck his fingers up to the man long before the sex pistols or anyone like that. Great episode. I'll check out the movie tonight.

couldn't agree with you more. The guy was a true original in many ways, not the least of which was not caring what "the powers that be" wanted him to do.
