200 Cadillacs (2004 Video) User Reviews

The Other Side of Elvis

[byeby-1 · 10/10 · 30 October 2007]

I was born the year Elvis made his first big hit so I was not a huge fan. But this movie shows another side to Elvis that even he was reluctant to share. He was incredibly generous and took pleasure in people's reaction to being given valuable things like Cadillacs . The movie is very well researched and some of the interviews with people who were there are history. I would think any fan would love this as well as those who are mildly curious. If you get the chance ,see the movie when Rex Fowler presents it live. He plays some more of his original songs and a few Elvis ballads as well . He also does a question and answer session afterward

old-fashioned largesse from The King

I had the privilege of adding a screening of this film during the 2018 Las Vegas Elvis Festival. Rex Fowler was there to provide a bit of background on his involvement with this project, quite a few years ago. I had no idea that Elvis Presley had been so generous, not only to his friends and family, but to complete strangers. The film title specifies Cadillacs, but those weren't the only types of cars he gave away. What a nice insight into the shy boy's heart still in the body of the public man!
