    "I thought of him as a poor talented boy from Tupelo Mississippi who wanted to buy his Mother a house"-
    Great words.

    I don't know if anyone else noticed, but his accent has changed dramatically over the years. If you see him in Bend it Like Beckham or his interview after the Golden Globes, he had a true Irish accent and now when I see this interview, I think he could easily pass for British.

  • @elisls2536

    I liked him at the beginning of the movie! But then he exaggerated a lot in the character! I do not think he is that much alike! They miss a lot in the physical choice always! I know why they do it! I think there are so many imitators so physically and vocally alike ... and they do great performances on stage! Just need to be trained in acting! Cody Ray Slaughter in the 50's and 60's ... or Chris Connor in the 60's and 70's for example!

    His portrayal was the worst one i have ever seen. It was so bad it was hilarious. Doesn't look abit like Elvis at all. How that won any awards is beyond me. Austin Butler's portrayal in the Elvis movie this year looks promising and could be as good as Kurt Russell's portrayal of Elvis in the 1979 film. Looking forward to that.
