Celebrating the Icons of our Time with Emirates Ice Inflight Entertainment
Honoring
the iconic figures who have shaped both culture and history throughout the 20th century,
Emirates passengers can now watch a host of acclaimed documentaries and movies
featuring the late Queen Elizabeth II, Elvis Presley, and The Beatles, on the
award-winning ice inflight entertainment system this October.
Celebrating
its 17th year as the ‘World's Best Inflight Entertainment’ at
the Skytrax World Airline Awards, the ice line-up includes
exclusive brand-new releases such as Elizabeth: A Portrait in Parts-
a touching tribute that charts the remarkable life of Queen Elizabeth II, the
longest reigning British monarch and longest serving female head of state in
history. Weaving together a nostalgic montage of footage of the Queen over 70
years, the viewer is transported on a creative and emotive journey through her
lifetime.
Passengers
can also enjoy the critically acclaimed 2022 movie – Elvis, a Baz
Luhrmann directed biographical musical drama, which has already been a huge hit
in the box office. True Elvis Presley fans can further immerse themselves in
his extraordinary musical career with the Elvis Spotlight
Collection featuring six of his classic movies; Jailhouse Rock (1957), It
Happened at the World's Fair (1963), Viva Las Vegas! (1964), Tickle
Me (1965), Speedway (1968) and Live a Little,
Love a Little (1968). A further two documentaries on the rock and roll
star including ‘Making the Movies Special - Elvis + Music in
Films’ and ‘Classic Albums: Elvis Presley’ are
available to watch on ice.
Music
fans can engage in an exploration of the one of the world’s most influential
bands, Brit rock and roll foursome - The Beatles, in a new documentary, The
Beatles and India. The film is a unique historical chronicle of the
enduring love affair between The Beatles and India featuring rare archival
footage, photographs, eye-witness accounts, and expert comments on the contrast
between their fast-paced celebrity lives in the West and their search for
spiritual bliss in India, which lead to an inspirational burst of creative
song-writing.
Action
aficionados will enjoy a new documentary entitled Val, which examines
the life, career, and health struggles of Hollywood star Val Kilmer, in

available on ice.
