Antwort auf:Elvis [Kino, Baz Luhrmann] von Karotte

>Hab‘s jetzt nie so mit Elvis Presley und Rock‘n‘Roll gehabt (Schallplatten und so), aber der Trailer holt mich sehr ab, irgendwie. Würde jetzt in meiner Ignoranz behaupten, dass der ausladende visuelle Stil von Baz Luhrmann auch sehr gut zu der Thematik passt.

Krass, Tom Hanks habe ich erst auf den dritten Blick erkannt.
Ich hoffe auch, dass die Fool's Gold Loaf Anekdote im Film ist. :-D

"David Adler's book contains a detailed account of the event that made the Fool's Gold Loaf sandwich famous.[10] On the night of February 1, 1976, Elvis Presley was at his home at Graceland in Memphis, entertaining Captain Jerry Kennedy of the Denver, Colorado police force, and Ron Pietrafeso of Colorado's Strike Force Against Crime. The three men began discussing the sandwich, and Presley decided he wanted one right then. Presley had been to the restaurant before, while in Denver.[10]

Kennedy and Pietrafeso were friends of the owners, so they were driven to the Memphis airport and boarded Presley's private jet, the Lisa Marie, and flew the two hours to Denver. When they arrived at Stapleton International Airport at 1:40 AM, the plane taxied to a special hangar where the passengers were greeted by Buck Scott, the owner of the Colorado Mine Company, and his wife Cindy, who had brought 22 fresh Fool's Gold Loaves for the men.[10] They spent two hours in the hangar eating the sandwiches, washing them down with Perrier and champagne.[10] Presley invited the pilots of the plane, Milo High and Elwood Davis, to join them. When they were done, they flew back to Memphis without ever having left the Denver airport.[10]"
