Elvis biopic, saying that it’s “nothing short of spectacular”.The singer and daughter of the late Elvis Presley wrote online that she’s seen the film, which is released next month, twice and cannot fault the “absolutely exquisite” movie that she believes lead star Austin Butler will win an Oscar for.Posting on Twitter in the wake of her son Benjamin Keough’s suicide in July 2020, the sole heir to her father’s estate explained why she felt so compelled to speak about Elvis as she continues to struggle with grief.“Hello, I haven’t posted in quite some time because there really isn’t much to say, as I’m and will forever be mourning the loss of my son.

Navigating through this hideous grief that absolutely destroyed & shattered my heart and my soul into almost nothing has swallowed me whole,” Presley wrote.However, that being said, I do want to take a moment to let you know that I've seen Baz Luhrmann's movie “Elvis” twice now.
