Movie Reviews of Elvis Presley: He Touched Me - The Gospel Music of Elvis Presley, Vol. 1 & 2
Movie Review: The heart of Elvis Presley
Summary: 4 Stars
I love this dvd for the simple fact that it dares to focus on the music and not the hype around Elvis. Gospel music fed his soul and if you want to know about the true Elvis, forget all the hype and negative personal dirty jounalism and focus on the music, both what he made and what inspired him. Then you will know the true Elvis. This documentary does an excellent job of presenting the Gospel and religious side of Elvis with excellent interviews by those that sang with him on the road, on recordings and long into the wee hours of the morning, doing what Elvis loved best, singing gospels. Definately worth the money for the serious or casual fan.Movie Review: Spirituality.
Summary: 4 Stars
Much has been published about Elvis and just when you think you have read, seen and heard it all, along comes "He touched me". It shows the spiritual side of Elvis, a side he maintained throughout his life, a spirituality that is demonstrated in this dvd. I thoroughly recommend "He touched me" to one and all.Movie Review: Good concept - Poor Execution
Summary: 1 Stars
The concept is good- Elvis singing gospel with commentary. What will leave Elvis fan's very dissapointed is the fact that his songs are cut off for the sake of commentary. This is a common complaint. What could have been a great DVD is now severely flawed in it's execution and will leave Elvis fans exasperated and pulling their hair out. Considering that his Gospel music was the only music that won him Grammy awards and is arguably some of his best and most inspired work- Elvis fans deserve better. Email or contact the licensing Executive (currently Irene Houston- 800-238-2000) at Elvis Presley Enterprises (Corporate Division)and make your request that this be re-released as a Collector's Edition with full length songs.
