Storyline
Road movie about a man in despair over the death of his wife, who decides to go on a journey from New Mexico to Memphis to see Graceland in his beat-up junker with the driver's door missing. En route, he picks up a hitchhiker in a pink sports jacket who proclaims himself to be Elvis, who is trying to return home to Graceland. Initially trying to free himself of Elvis, he slowly becomes enamored with the man's capability to have influence over everyone around him including a state trooper who stops the vehicle. Bridget Fonda appears as a Mississippi casino Marilyn Monroe impersonator who helps Schaech out of his funk. Written by John Sacksteder <jsackste@bellsouth.net>

This is the kind of film you'll be debating a year after you see it. Harvey Keitel at his best.
The film should have been nominated somewhere.
This is a truly adult film with no easy answers, but with fascinating people involved in a plot worth your close attention.
