Protecting the King Synopsis & Summary

Producer/writer/director and stepbrother to Elvis Presley, D. Edward Stanley relays just what it was like to protect the King of Rock and Roll in an intensely personal biography that offers rare personal insight into one of the music world's most revered figures. Stanley was only sixteen at the time he went to work for The King, yet in his experiences the teen would learn more about the way the world works than he would have in any classroom. Of course the highs were just as intense as the lows, and from the sex to the drugs and the violence, this is one story that is simply too strange to be fiction. - Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
