Description de l'événement
"REINVENTING ELVIS: THE ’68 COMEBACK captures a seminal moment when a legend
rediscovered his own genius and shared it with a world that had nearly forgotten him. The year was
1968. Political assassinations and racial strife were tearing America apart. The last thing anyone was
asking for was an Elvis Presley TV special. At this time, the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll had become
irrelevant, dethroned by the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and a host of younger, more vital musical
artists. And yet that program -- the '68 Comeback Special -- managed to lift collective spirits and
revive the 33-year-old rock icon’s career. Producer/Director Steve Binder, the man who helped
“reinvent Elvis” and is present throughout the film, tells this amazing story from his first-person
perspective. The film is currently streaming on Paramount+ and Robert Lloyd of The Los Angeles
Times praised it as “a welcome corrective to Baz Luhrmann’s scrupulously mimetic, factually
whimsical biopic. Fans, it goes without saying, will want to see it.” The Times London cheered “4
Stars. Earnest and all-encompassing documentary.” Writer/Director John Scheinfeld will introduce the
film and then invite audience questions and conversation following the screening.
