Epic: Elvis Presley in Concert

Epic follows Elvis Presley, featuring never-before-seen footage and recordings, including long-lost footage from Presley's legendary Las Vegas residency in the 1970s, precious 8mm from the Graceland archive, and recordings of Elvis telling "his side of the story". You’ll feel like you traveled back in time and was actually at this concert while watching.  EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert is not just a concert film; it's a look at greatness, and powerfully showcases the dedication, drive, and want by Presley to be the best at what he did.
