View this post on InstagramThompson, who dated Presley for four years between 1972 and 1976, said she " ad a deeply sensorial reaction to the film’s ultra close-ups…sweat dripping…gorgeous eyes that penetrate the soul… and the depth of feeling that I vividly and viscerally remember Elvis was capable of."
"I was struck with gratitude for having actually been there and witnessed the electricity of his performances hundreds of times… & that I got to fall asleep with and wake up to this force of nature named Elvis Presley for years," she continued. "I was privileged to hear & to share his innermost thoughts and feelings."
Nothing that she was well-aware of "the icon and enormous talent" that Presley was, Thompson wrote, "To me, he was my very human love with all his strengths and weaknesses, nobility and fallibility, fortitude and frailty… loyalty and mystery…and so deeply complex in his simplicity."
"The editing of this film by Jonathan Redmond is nothing short of Spectacular," Thompson said while applauding all of those whose work went into the new film.
"So much of Elvis‘s unique character and personality are on display in this movie…And yet there was so much more to him… more years, more songs, more tours, more Aloha, more jumpsuits, more love… ??? "
EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert released exclusively in IMAX theaters on Friday, Feb. 20, and will be followed by a nationwide release on Friday, Feb. 27.
