[@lechat8533]

@@no1nestandsalone387 Exactly!! Linda Thompson is a wonderful lady and she spent some difficult years with Elvis but still, no other relationship Elvis had can compare to what he had with Priscilla. She endured a lot being with young Elvis for so many years. Priscilla would never have stayed with Elvis for as long as she did if she was older. Her tremendous love and youth made it possible for her to stay with him for so long. People often speak about her as if they know her, all just because of what was published in the media and because of the book she wrote. I am convinced that there are many things that she has never revealed about her marriage with Elvis to the public because she is a Lady. But still, many people hate her for revealing some crumbs about Elvis. He wasn`t an easy person to live with and she survived it because, despite what people say, she has always been a very strong yet gentle, and dignified woman. And now, life has given her a blow only the rarest are able to survive. God bless her, Riley, Harper, Finley, and all those who care for Elvis and Lisa Marie.

I think the movie was so one-sided I think it’s so sad how most of his family and best friends and women he really truly loved we’re not even mentioned and the movie was supposed to be about Elvis how disappointing

[@DJG520]

Right, I enjoyed it but I think they could’ve went more in depth in his life as well as show him giving people things and being generous

Ofc Elvis would be lured by the beautiful, smart, Gemini. 🙂 She did an AMAZING job turning his estate around. I get a sense she loved him more than money. 🖤

Miss you E.....

[@eldapucci3306]

Saw the movie, she really loved him. People around Elvis did not, especially whom he trusted. Sad story.

I am so sorry Miss Presley for Elvis my dad is a big big huge fan of Elvis Presley

[@BrendaBooher-hw4mf]

Precilla is a millionaire because of Elvis and none of us are perfect but I am thankful that she helps keep Elvis' memory alive. Losing Elvis was horrible for all who loved him and now Cilla is carrying the worst Mothers nightmare there is which is losing Lisa Marie. I know because I have lost two beautiful daughters who were only 21 and 23. Lisa Maria is at rest now with her Dad and son, Benjamin. May they all r.i.p.

[@jeffreyknight3884]

What an amazing woman, she's been through alot. Thank you beautiful Priscilla for keeping elvis legacy alive. ❤

[@rosilenesousa361]

For me, Elvis himself and the fans keep Elvis's alive, more than anybody else! And the legacy of Elvis is his music and his message, more than anything else!

[@JesusOnlyWay-d8e]

one thing true what she said elvis did say he hated all the movies they made him do and he wanted to be serious actor except the movie he did like was viva las vegas

[@shankroidbeast4644]

I never understood the whole excessive plastic surgery thing. Helen Mirren is the same age as Priscilla Presley and looks absolutely beautiful and hasn't had any plastic surgery. It doesn't even look like Priscilla can move parts of her face. I'm not trying to be mean, I just don't understand it.

God Bless her

[@EnigWHYmatic]

She loves him so much that during the vigil last night she kept saying we were there to celebrate his birthday.

[@nenabunena]

Lol

[@ApplePie..]

She loved him so much yeah she cheated on him with a karate instructor.

[@tooniyeoni]

@@ApplePie.. oh, please. that was only one time and she divorced him during that. elvis cheated on her so many times during their marriage. give her a break.

[@EnigWHYmatic]

@@ApplePie.. you missed the point of my comment I guess.. it called sarcasm. It was a candlelight vigil… For the anniversary of his death… And she said we were there to celebrate his birthday. Multiple times.

[@norway178]

@@tooniyeoni There were 2 or 3 affairs that she wrote about. Elvis divorced her.

Actually I think the 1979 “Elvis” movie with Kurt Russell is better.

[@DJG520]

I like that it’s told from Elvis point of view, I would like to see an updated movie from Elvis point of view

[@Mexicanita1904]

They were together 14 years from 1959-1973. They shared a daughter, his only child and now they share grandchildren. He had many women in his life but Priscilla was the only one he married. She has every right to remember him. Elvis was a once in a lifetime man. May he RIP.

[@kelseyrydzynski6263]

It’s very cool of Percilla to be willing to talk about Elvis all the time because there’s no way that’s easy

[@mosesberkowitz3298]

So true! And they didn’t make it easy for Prisilla by asking “What was the hardest scene for you to watch?” What a thoughtless question!

[@maxineneild7352]

Percilla doesn’t do it for fun she gets paid to do it it’s her job I remember years ago she wanted to be her own person I remember her saying shes free from the Presley name she wasn’t getting the attention and fame she thought she would get that’s why she’s all about elvis she realised that’s were her money is if it wasn’t for the fans she’d be out of job elvis fans will always be here long after she’s gone so no she doesn’t keep elvis memory alive his fans do

[@elvis78ale]

@@maxineneild7352 I agree. All her life talking about Elvis even if she aways claims she wanted to discover herself and find her way. I've never understood why she has spent every moment of her life talking about him, if he was so bad in their relationship. Without Elvis, sorry, no Priscilla

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

She is such a snake in the grass. Elvis deserved an honest movie.. to alter so many stories of his life is unbelievable.. and the whitewashing of his history that is clearly going on is so disrespectful.

[@debra2700]

Hey Jordan. Love your channel. You don't think it's accurate that Elvis only loved Priscilla, she left him because of drugs and not for Mike Stone., that the Viva Las Vegas scene took out Ann-Margaret and replaced her with Priscilla and he wept in the limo next to a plane he hadn't even bought yet and then was so miserably heartbroken without her that he promptly died? Don't even get me started on what they did to Vernon and Gladys.

Great movie, watched it last night.

I just watched the movie last night and I loved it. I loved Austin Butler as Elvis. He did a great job. Those were large shoes to fit. I thought it was so sad. May he rest in peace.
