7/29/10

After they filmed Elvis: That’s the Way It Is, the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll™ and his crew were eager to follow that success with another captivating concert documentary. How could they make it different? By going backstage and on the road. Now for only one night, you can experience the excitement of what it was like to tour with Elvis. On Thursday July 29, 2010 in select movie theaters nationwide, see the masterpiece Elvis on Tour.

Warner Bros., Elvis Presley Enterprises and NCM Fathom are commemorating the 75th anniversary of Elvis Presley’s birth by presenting Elvis on Tour: 75th Anniversary Celebration, a special in-theater event that celebrates the timeless music of the rock ‘n’ roll icon.

This one night event will feature much of the last film footage shot with Elvis and never-before-seen footage. More than 25 numbers spotlighting Elvis Presley’s talent, range and showmanship fill this lively chronicle of his multi-city 1972 series of concerts. Plus montage sequences (supervised by Martin Scorsese) showcase Presley’s early career in music and movies. The unique split-screen presentation conveys the whirlwind, “you-are-there” energy and performance thrills of Elvis on Tour. The result of this different look at the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll™? Fan euphoria – and a Golden Globe® for Best Documentary.

The presentation of Elvis on Tour will be specially formatted to preserve the exact aspect ratio of the film as first seen by audiences in 1972.
