^This performance stands head and shoulders above the rest, IMHO. So tasteful, simple and authentic compared to some of the others - I hope France wins.

Elvis Presley: The Searcher
![[Image: 220px-Elvis_Presley-_The_Searcher.jpg]](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/aa/Elvis_Presley-_The_Searcher.jpg/220px-Elvis_Presley-_The_Searcher.jpg) A two-part documentary. I’m not at all an Elvis fan and don’t know that much about him – missed out completely on the furore, so this was an interesting watch for me. I can see how he drew people in, and that music was deep in his soul – he really did know those songs he loved, every single nuance of them. I wonder why he never wrote songs - anyone? Or was it simply his métier to interpret? Amazing to think that rock n roll was pretty much helped on its way as the result of an involuntary leg twitch! From the perspective of this movie, it seems that Elvis was basically a commodity – a phenomenon of his time and a casualty too - someone who seems to have been fairly easily manipulated; the filmmakers play heavily on the fact that his whole career was controlled by Colonel Tom Parker – crazy to think he held so much sway over such a famous personality. It’s a mystery – these co-dependencies. Priscilla Presley loans some commentary along the way, naturally – nicely sanitized I suspect! And Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen have a few words too. It covers his humble beginnings, military draft and film career, and then gets a bit rushed towards the end and his death – not sensationalised, which is good – and not gossipy, ditto. Feels like there’s a chunk they’re missing in the second part though. It’s worth an airing IMHO. Sorry to say that I’m still not a fan - missed that boat, along with a few others! But I am a little more understanding of what he was all about, and why. (The pic of him in the poster shows brown eyes - contact lenses for a test shoot)

The Young Victoria (movie) with Emily Blunt, 2009. I have watched the series with Jenna Coleman and Tom Hughes twice and loved the settings and atmosphere and of course the acting. And Rufus Sewell! That guy can do ANYTHING can't he? Now wanting to see if Emily Blunt and company can hold a candle to that series.....

i havent seen it but i think Emily Blunt could almost certainly pull of the role, shes a great actress IMO...
have you seen her performance in "the girl on the train"? she was excellent in that one, good movie also.
