Synopsis

A slick portrait of the flamboyant "King of Rock & Roll" follows the musical icon as he hustles Bibles in the South and, eventually, offers little in the way of cooperation with filmmakers. Included: TV clips and performances by impersonators. Written and directed by William Klein, who also shot documentaries about Muhammad Ali and Eldridge Cleaver.
