I only learned about the documentary in passing but as soon as I learned about it I had to see it. Elvis was a cultural phenomenon but by the time of his death he had become a caricature of himself. That's why most of the impersonators are Fat Elvises. Young Elvis was nothing like that. Ironically dying so young made him more famous in death than he was in life.
