Decades For Elvis

  1. 1950s
  2. 1960s

  4. 1970s

He still had some moments in the ’70s, I’ll give him that.

Baz Luhrmann movies

  1. Romeo + Juliet (1996)
  2. Strictly Ballroom (1992)
  3. The Great Gatsby (2013)
  4. Moulin Rouge (2001)

Wait … Baz Lurhmann has only made six movies? (Counting Elvis?) Did you realize that he had so few movies?
