Girls! | FTD Limited Vinyl Edition 2 LP Record Set (Elvis Presley) Viva Australia: Recreating Iconic Locations for Elvis (HD, 8 Mins.) - Luhrmann is Australian and he and a few others talk about how Australia and Los Angeles were used as the locations for the film. The 40th Anniversary Today (Legacy Edition), the last studio album to be released during the King’s lifetime, contains the entire original album (first released on May 7, 1975) while premiering 10 un-dubbed mixes from the sessions, providing a new intimate listening experience.

Elvis DVD and Blu-ray release details released - Digital Spy

Format: Multiple Formats, AC-3, Blu-ray, Dolby, DTS Surround Sound, NTSC, Original recording remastered, Subtitled, Widescreen the entire film is a whirligig of kaleidoscopic images, split-screen montages stitched together with machine gun editing and a kinetic sense of motion that never lets up Surround usage is nicely drawn, coming alive for the performances, with the ambience of the crowd and the various stages spread around and above the listener. There are various spot effects that make full use of the speaker array thanks to Luhrmann’s high energy montages and use of visual effects, but my only criticism of the sound mix here is that there is such a difference between the musical performances and the rest of the film with regard to its use of the entire speaker array that I always wanted just a little more ambience and atmosphere from the speakers during the many off-stage moments….

Conclusion

Luhrmann has never bowed down to Hollywood executives to compromise his stunning vision in telling stories everyone knows by heart, whether it be his own version of Romeo + Juliet, a take on Moulin Rogue!, or a highly valued stylized concept of The Great Gatsby. Luhrmann knows how to set a film on fire with spectacular effects that can fully immerse his audience inside a live stage play with all the hot lights, music, and choreography to keep everyone's toes tapping. The same goes for hisElvispicture, however, Luhrmann takes an unconventional approach once again to tell this tragic tale of Elvis's life and career. With an out-of-the-world performance from Butler and a weird, yet underwhelming role for Tom Hanks, the pacing and the film's length hinder it from being completely enjoyable. But kudos to Luhrmann for doing something creative and original with this biopic that nobody saw coming - telling the hero's story from the villain's eye line. Disc 1 was recorded live on April 9, 1972, at Hampton Roads Coliseum, Hampton, Virginia, and contains all previously unreleased material.

Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio. And yet Luhrmann and his cadre of screenwriters decide to cut through it all with some stark and brave narrative choices……frame the entire film as a medicated fever dream of Elvis’s long-term manager/nemesis Colonel Tom Parker (Tom Hanks), which not only turns the entire thing into less of a straight-forward biopic and more a battle for the soul of Elvis, but also justifies the assault on the senses that Luhrmann delivers in his typical OTT brand of cinematic excess.

Side guide

The mixing of the songs is nigh on perfect – the bass and its use of the LFE channel is tight and deep, but fast and never resorts to booming or overt spot blasts of LFE. The midrange has a fantastic body and depth to it, giving the detail of each instrument and Butler’s energetic and raspy vocals (complete with all the little details of a live performance) room to be easily discerned, while the crisp highs puncture through with clarity and crispness. It’s a wonderfully musical mix. The most complete and comprehensive collection of Elvis Presley’s final studio recordings ever assembled in one anthology, Way Down In The Jungle Room brings together, for the first time in one collection, master recordings and rare outtakes laid down during two mythic sessions (February 2-8, 1976 and October 28-30, 1976) in Graceland’s den–known as the “Jungle Room”–which was converted into a professional caliber recording studio for the purpose of capturing these indelible performances. The outtakes have been newly mixed by Grammy Award-winning engineer Matt Ross-Spang at Sam Phillips Recording in Memphis, Tennessee. If I Can Dream: Elvis Presley With The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra features classic Elvis vocal performances with brand-new orchestral accompaniment, along with a duet with Michael Bublé, and appearances by Il Volo and Duane Eddy.

Elvis’: How to Watch for Free – Billboard Austin Butler in ‘Elvis’: How to Watch for Free – Billboard

Elvis comes to town with a great 1080p HD transfer that is beautiful and crisp. The 4K with Dolby Vision option is the better one to go with, but this 1080p image does a good job. The colors pop in true Elvis fashion when he's on stage. His pink suits and cars look amazing and the bright lights of Las Vegas that reign in reds, greens, purples, and everything in between look excellent. The sequences when Elvis is younger give way to a sandier image full of muted greens, blues, and browns. But once Elvis grows up and becomes popular, those colors burst with emotion. Elvis snagged three Golden Globe nominations on Monday (Dec. 12), including a best actor nod for the film’s star, Austin Butler. Justin has been with Digital Spy since 2010, and in that time, has covered countless major news events for DS from the US. Disc 2 was recorded live on April 10, 1972, at Richmond Coliseum, Richmond, Virginia, and contains all previously unreleased material. Some of Elvis’ 1971 Nashville studio recordings appeared, with subsequent orchestral and vocal overdubs, on the seasonal collection Elvis Sings the Wonderful World of Christmas (1971), the GRAMMY-winning gospel album He Touched Me (1972), Elvis Now (1972) and 1973’s Elvis.Starring: Austin Butler , Tom Hanks , Olivia DeJonge , Helen Thomson , Richard Roxburgh , Kelvin Harrison Jr. From its opening logos, you’re under no illusion that this is pure Luhrmann – he might have been away from our screens since 2013’s ‘ The Great Gatsby’, but he’s lost nothing of his visual sensibilities: the entire film is a whirligig of kaleidoscopic images, split-screen montages stitched together with machine gun editing and a kinetic sense of motion that never lets up across its 159-minute run-time. It's breathless, especially in its opening act, where time periods slip and slide across each other as Parker’s narration gets the audience up to speed with Presley, and it could so easily disorientate… but it somehow seems a perfect match for the sequin-festooned, gaudily glamorous excess of Elvis’s life that, together with its established structure of taking part in Parker’s drug-induced mind, presents Presley in almost the only way that it could.
