A 2017 American documentary directed by Eugene Jarecki, this film embarks on a musical road trip across the United States in Elvis Presley's 1963 Rolls-Royce. It examines Presley's life and career as a metaphor for the rise and fall of the American Dream, blending archival footage, interviews with celebrities like Alec Baldwin, Emmylou Harris, and Chuck D, and scenes from contemporary America. Jarecki portrays Presley as a symbol of cultural appropriation, commercialization, and political transformation, paralleling his journey from poverty to icon status with America's evolution into an empire. The film delves into issues of race relations, national identity, and the fate of democracy, offering a profound analysis of Presley's cultural legacy and its impact on American society.
