Heart Of The King




The lives of several Elvis impersonators are examined in this documentary. At the jump, the film-maker claims he wants his film to be respectful of his subjects. Well, he failed. Showing Pseudo-Elvi playing darts, bowling, singing karaoke, giving sermons, being racist, and floundering onstage; Heart Of The King can't help but exploit. Unfortunately, even the exploitation is dull. However, I did enjoy the strange and surreal Elvis-related puppetry.
