Elvis and Nixon

A story, as opposed to "the story" about the famous photo of Elvis Presley in the Oval Office with President Richard Nixon in 1971.  The backstory is that while Nixon started recording his meetings in his office, he did not do it until after meeting Elvis.  So who knows what they talked about?

This is a fictional story about why Elvis wanted to meet Nixon and how the meeting came about.  Some fun touches make it an interesting, if disbelieving story, but who really knows?  Both are long deceased and it probably only lasted 10 minutes or so.

Michael Shannon plays the 70s Elvis and Kevin Spacey as the straight man Nixon.  Elvis is of course the star.
