Baz Luhrmann: film director on his new project EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert
from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB
Acclaimed Australian director Baz Luhrmann is the man behind films like The Great Gatsby, Moulin Rouge, Romeo and Juliet - and he's spent time exploring Elvis Presley's work. Luhrmann directed the 2022 Elvis biopic, and it was during that production process that he discovered hours and hours of unseen Elvis concert footage down a Warner Brothers salt mine. He used the footage to craft EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert. "There's not a frame of AI in this movie and there's no visual effects - I'd like to say the only visual effect is the effect Elvis has on the audience."
