Elvis Meets Nixon (1997 TV Movie)
6/10
"Mockumentary" of meeting between The King and The President.
12 December 2000
This is a tongue in cheek look at an actual meeting between Elvis Presley and Richard Nixon. On December 21, 1970, Elvis, armed with a gun and chemically enhanced, met in the Oval Office with President Nixon. The reason for the meeting was Elvis' request for a badge from the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, thus making him an agent-at-large of the DEA. Hard to believe, but true...the visit was a success.

Rick Peters does an over the top parody of Presley. Bob Gunton is a very laughable President Nixon. Also in the cast are: Curtis Armstrong, Alyson Court and Denny Doherty.

Quite a bizzarre event and in retrospect you see the hypocrisy and contrasting truth to be pretty silly.
