Colonel Tom Parker witnesses Elvis Presley’s first performance at the Louisiana Hayride, where “a skinny boy” in a loose-fitting pink suit metamorphoses into a pelvis-thrusting “superhero” and drives hordes of previously po-faced, unimpressed women in the audience into caterwauling harpies. Parker dazzles the Presley family with the promise of riches then turns his star talent against the people he should trust.
