Story
In her biopic of Priscilla Presley, Sofia Coppola presents a fascinating drama about love, fame and the Elvis myth. Elvis Presley (Jacob Elordi) is already in the middle of a meteoric career when he comes to know Priscilla Beaulieu (Cailee Spaeny). A 14-year old teenager at the time, she meets the superstar at a party – and encounters a completely different side to him. An exciting, glittering romance begins and Elvis becomes Priscilla’s ally in her loneliness and her vulnerable best friend. She moves into his fantastic home at Graceland. But their relationship is not without controversy and their subsequent marriage an emotional roller-coaster ride.
