In "it happened at the world far" (one of Elvis's films) there was a scene where Elvis himself was kicked in the shin by a young Kurt Russell.

I'm so glad you wrote this... I thought I was the only person on You Tube who liked Kurt the most. I think that Kurt was the best not because he looked the most like him or was the best impersonator, he was the best because he was the best ACTOR. No one brought the HEART of Elvis to the screen like Kurt Russell.

The standard is sitting in a dark room, realizing your entire life and then shooting a television screen. That’s Elvis, baby.

[AnOldTimer]

I watched Kurt in the Elvis biopic at the time- he knocked it out of the park!

[rjmartin]

Austin Butler did the damn thing! He took home a Golden Globe and a BAFA Award for his performance. Kurt Russell did great compared to ... others who aren't worth mentioning.

[lisachapman]

I have always thought that Kurt Russell did Elvis better than Austin Butler could ever do!

[kelmo]

Kurt sounded and looked liked Elvis. Austin moved and had energy like Elvis. And Jacob… was jacob

He wasn't an impersonator. It was a movie role.

[joansmith]

Kurt was amazing as Elvis and everything else that he is in makes it better.
