Synopsis

Jolene and Earl can't even have a baby until Jolene's mama tells her to pray at Elvis's grave.

It's a miracle!

Jolene is chosen to bear Elvis's posthumous child.

Jolene and Earl move into Graceland Mobile Estates, where they meet Ruby, a temptress who looks surprisingly like Dolly Parton.

When Jolene gives birth to a baby girl (played by an adult), life becomes complicated for these naive heroes.

Presley Ann, the miracle child, quickly grows into a resentful teenager and Jolene alienates everyone, but finally learns she can be somebody worthwhile on her own.

Miracle in Memphis is hilarious for Elvis lovers and everyone else.
