Elvis & Me is the 1988 TV mini-series based on Priscilla's best selling book of the same name. Starring Dale Midkiff as Elvis and Susan Walters as Priscilla, the ratings blockbuster was aired over two nights. The mini-series tells their story from Priscilla's "viewpoint" as is her right. It includes many interesting stories and emotions: scenes of an Elvis look-a-like contest in the 1950s. ~ Elvis' strong dislike of Vernon's developing relationship with "sexy" Dee Presley. ~ The Beaulieu's concern over Priscilla's relationship with Elvis. ~ Elvis missing Gladys and longing for "home". ~ Elvis' concern that artists like Fabian and Ricky Nelson would replace him. ~ The "ghost' of Gladys hanging over Graceland. ~ Elvis' womanising. ~ Priscilla's loneliness resulting in her affair with Mike Stone.

Once upon a time, not so long ago, there lived a King.  His name was Elvis.  ELVIS AND ME is his story. Taken from the bestselling memoirs of his and lover, Priscilla Beaulieu Pesley, it is an insider's true story.  

From the Mississippi delta to Los Vegas ballrooms, from Graceland to the inner circle of the rock and roll empire, ELVIS AND ME traces the most meteoric rise to stardom the world has ever known.  But there was also another Elvis.  The private Elvis.  The Elvis that wanted to create, in Priscilla, the perfect womon - a blend of hot sexuality and pristine innocense, ofspunkiness and submission.  It is this hidden Elvis that we are finally given a glimpse of.  The generosity, the victories, the almost fatherly warmth and thequiet and creeping desperation that would be his undoing.  Told with candor and care, ELVIS AND ME is a bittersweet and passionate reflection of the loss of innocence, the loss of love, and the loss of a living national treasure ELVIS PRESLEY.
