“You didn’t think I’d make it, did ya? I didn’t think so either,” the real life Elvis Presley mumbles on a Las Vegas stage in @bazluhrmann’s documentary ‘EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert.’

To be fair, the same could be said for the 50 or so stylish New Yorkers that showed up to Luhrmann and Vanity Fair’s screening of the new concert film at The Crosby Street Hotel. Despite the once-in-nearly-a-decade blizzard that had brought New York to an icy halt, the cozy private theater was full with names that included @adrienbrody, @derekblasberg, and VF global editorial director @guiducci.

Why, after the success of his dramatized ‘Elvis’ film, did Luhrmann decide to do another? Part of it was the richness of source material—in a speech to the crowd, he describes going to the MGM archive and discovering 67 boxes of negatives. Another part of it was, well, artistic duty. At one moment in the documentary, Elvis, blue eyes wide, tells the crowd that one of his life wishes is to perform in New York or Britain. He never got to do so in his lifetime. “We’re giving Elvis the world tour he dreamed but never had,” Luhrmann said.
