any certain parts

hey people, i was just wondering if there were any certain parts in this movie that really gave u chills or goosebumps? the parts for me were when elvis almost made priscilla leave los angeles bcause she got mad about him and ann-margaret. the part where she's crying and she says "im sorry" with her mascara running down her face. and also when he "rapes" her(if that really did happen), and she's sitting in her room after it happens and she breaks down after he leaves. and then when priscilla confronts elvis later on that night and she goes into the reason's why she's leaving him, you can really see how much he hurt her over the years and how she feels she doesn't fit into his life anymore "you want me to cook, i can't even get you a glass of water; you press a button for that", "the only place you really want to be is on a stage".

I havent seen this movie in awhile so I really dont remember it that well, So I cant really say what parts gave me chills. I would have to re-watch it again if it ever comes on again :(

the part that gives me chills is after they leave the hospital in germany in the snow when he tells her "One day we'll have everything" thats just gives me goosebumpes because when u think about it later they did have everything but eachother!!! pretty sad!

The part toward the end when Priscilla is leaving him and says "The only place you really want to be is on a stage." The look on Elvis' face is heartbreaking.

I love when he leaves Germany and she screams Elvis's name out in the crowd. It's so heartbreaking, I can't imagine the pain she must have felt.

Also, towards the end when he's driving away from her for the last time and after he asked for her to take him back and she said no.

Great movie and so underrated.

The end, when he leaves her house after saying goodnight to Lisa Marie, when "are you lonesome tonight" is playing...it's hard not to bawl at that. I love that part...so sad.

Yes, definitely the part when he's crying in the limo and Joe E. says off camera, "You're alright, E?" and he says, "Yeah, man." and he starts tearing up and crying. And then Joe says, "Is she gonna take you back?" And Elvis says, I don't know man." And then Joe or Jerry says, "I love you, E." And Elvis says, "I love you too." And then the next face you see is that of Priscilla on her way to the funeral. Oh, boy was that heart-wrenching!.

If this part doesn't make a grown man cry there isn't a heart left beating in your chest. My brother loves Elvis and can't even discuss this scene without crying. Just thinking about it makes my eyes wet.

Now I can remember it some, From reading other posts. The part that gave me chills is when he shoots the t.v when they are outside "I think they were outisde" but anyway yeah thats the part that gave me chills but the part that was really sad to me was then they were in seperate cars and they were both crying, I think it was after they got out of court after getting a divorce.
