September 06 - EPiC World Premiere

The Toronto International Film Festival ranks among the most prestigious international film festivals in the world, and that is where Baz Luhrmann's 'EPIC - Elvis Presley in Concert' movie had its world premiere. 


One of the journalists who saw a preview stated: "I’d thought that when he emerged from the atom-splitting moments of him you depicted as he became this edgy risk taker who inspired so many kids to become musicians, he went to Vegas and became a caricature in a jumpsuit. I stand corrected; he was a badass who could really sing, from what you captured."
