This round will contain less info about the film, and has no mentions of Robert Goulet, I promise. But it IS all about the usual things you discuss when it comes to THE KING. Stuff you just can't avoid when bringing up Elvis Aron Presley: Bloom County, Charles Bronson, 'lectric guitar pickups, Corey Feldman, Johnny Cash, electro shock therapy, 16 year old Priscilla, Sam Phillips, and the case for Colonel Tom Parker being a paranoid psychopath who never let Elvis tour Europe because he was still wanted for the murder of a young shopkeeper in his tiny Dutch hometown.
