There's danger in meeting your hero...especially if your hero becomes your boss, and your boss in the King of Rock & Roll. Duke Bardwell learned that the hard way. Part documentary, part concert film, Duke & The King tells the story of Bardwell, one of the great unheralded talents in American music. Focusing in part on Duke's relationship with Elvis Presley, the film is a cautionary tale about hero worship and the trappings of fame. Bardwell's story also demonstrates what happens when the right words and music come together to alter destiny and, in doing so, offer a shot at redemption. The film features appearances by Kenny Loggins, Tom Rush, Casey Kelly, 'Big Luther' Kent, Trevor Veitch, David Greely, Leon Medica and Franko 'Washboard' Jackson.—Anonymous
