Story Synopsis

Elvis: That’s The Way It Is is the fascinating film about the man who created a new style and a new sound and became a dynamic rock sensation. Following his last film in 1969 (ironically titled Change Of Habit), Elvis Presley turned away from Hollywood and devoted his time to the one thing he loved best—his music. After an electrifying 57-show engagement in Las Vegas in the summer of 1969, Elvis repeated the success a mere six months later—with MGM’s cameras rolling from relaxed rehearsals to opening night. Twenty seven of the King’s most famous songs—including “I’ve Lost You,” “Love Me Tender,” “Sweet Caroline,” “Blue Suede Shoes,” “All Shook Up”—ignite this documentary, capturing Elvis in all his glory.
