The first half of the film is a typical, and unfortunate, Baz-Luhrmann mess, the rest is fine. Hank's performance is a distraction throughout.  Butler is very very good as Elvis.  Lucky is right, he nailed it.
And in the end you see a sad and beautiful performance by Elvis, and you're reminded, again,  how golden that voice was.  

I saw the film “Elvis” last week. I highly recommend it even though I found it extremely difficult to sit through and one of the saddest films I have ever seen.  I was bowled over by Austin Butlers portrayal of Elvis Presley.  The guy absolutely nailed it from beginning to end. If he does not win the Academy Award for Best Actor, it will prove to me that winners are not selected based on their performances but rather on what is politically correct at the moment. I did not, however, much like Tom Hank’s portrayal of “Colonel Tom Parker”. As far as I’m concerned, he over acted to the point of creating an absurd caricaturization of Parker. However, my money is definitely on Hanks winning best actor in a supporting role for his performance. Hanks along with, for example, Meryl Streep and Helen Mirren are amongst a group of actors who if they walked out on a stage, tripped, and feel over the audience would go crazy – they simply can do NO wrong.


 

I will always remember his portrayal of Brian Piccolo in the 1971 made for T.V. film “Brian’s Song”. I cried during the entire second half of that film.

When I was in my 30's and seriously into bodybuilding I kept myself shaved down.  That was the look I most appreciated with other guys as well.  Once I cut WAY back on the bodybuilding my taste seemed to change as well.  I now, at soon to be 81,  enjoy guys who are shaved down and those who are furry.  Playing with a nice pelt of chest hair can, for me at least, be sexy as hell.  I also think shaved or not, having the top couple of buttons of a shirt open is also sexy as hell.  My advice is ignore your buddy's advice and do as you please. 

I have found that when traveling in Europe is can be extremely difficult to find "local" guys. For example, try finding a British escort in London - there simply don't seem to be many of them. Most of the escorts available in London are Spanish, Italian, or Brazilian.  Trying to find a Brit is like trying to find a needle in a haystack.  The same is quite true of Paris as well - many North Africans and escorts from other former French colonies.

As far as weather is concerned it doesn't get any better than San Diego. Seldom over the mid 80's or below the low 60's.  The one MAJOR problem that San Diego, like all other California cities, is experiencing is a homeless situation that is totally out of control. At least two cruise lines have ceased stopping in San Diego because their passengers have been accosted by homeless panhandlers. State and local governments appear clueless about how to address the problem.  However, even with the homeless problem San Diego is still a great place to live.

Tell that to my financial advisor and stock broker.  They'd have a good laugh.
Escorting is a career if you're a smart one.

Unfortunately, for me at least, he lists himself as straight.

Interesting comment Charlie. You are probably speaking for me as well. I have a Traders Joe's directly across the street from me. I have never been a big fan of Traders Joe's as are many of my friends and neighbors. They simply do not carry most of the items I normally purchase. I'm not a big fan of prepackaged meats and I can find vegetables as good as theirs cheaper at other markets. I do like their cheese selection.  I do use Smart & Final because it is even closer to me that Trader Joe's and I like their vegetables, however, I don't care for the meat. I generally buy meat at Stater Bros. when it is on sale. I also do a considerable amount of shopping at my very local Costco. I keep my pantry stocked with Costco items. I entertain a great deal. I have people over for dinner at least once or twice a week thus food is a major expenditure for me and I know prices and where to get the best value for my money.

Doing very much better.  Symptoms resolved, thank you for asking.  Truly, The right orthotics were the key.

A friend, a long distance runner almost crippled by PF, swears that acupuncture helped him get back on his feet (literally).

I am most definitely a band buyer. Since that is the case I'm not remotely interested in shopping at places like Aldis and Grocery Outlets. An excellent example of my brand buying is that I am not remotely interested in how much less a house mayonnaise is I ONLY buy Best Foods/Hellman. House brands don't carry any attraction for me.

I have to wonder if this guy is really serious.  He has 82 photos posted on rentmen and all he shows is a bare torso.  In all those photos NOT one ass or cock shot.  REALLY!!!!!
