(Live) By Jay Bobbin Elvis Presley's legendary 1968 television special was a turning point not only for him, but for many of the other people in- volved in it. One was producer-director Steve Binder, who candidly told the "King" of music that the latter's career was "in the toilet," so he needed to do the NBC-televised hour. The result quickly became a legendary piece of television, and Paramount+ looks back at it in the new offer- ing "Reinventing Elvis: The '68 Comeback," which starts stream- ing Tuesday, Aug, 15 — the night before the 46th anniversary of Presley's death, and following the project's limited showings in movie theaters globally. While incorporating many segments from the original show, "Reinventing Elvis" examines Presley's relationship not only with Binder (who narrates the bulk of the film), but also with Col. Tom Parker, the famously strict manager who kept tight control over Presley. Singers Dar- ius Rucker and Drake Milligan are among those who offer com- ments, along with journalist Al- anna Nash and Anita Mann, who was a dancer on the 1968 special. Also an executive producer of "Reinventing Elvis," Binder main- tains that he's "real pleased with what they did" creatively with the documentary, though he admits he was skeptical at first. "When I was approached to get involved, I said, 'There are so many third-party sto- ries about Elvis, why do we need another one?' Then they pitched me their idea, and it really covered 1968 as a whole. I was rooting for them from the sidelines, and I certainly was responsive to any of their requests for more material."
