Priscilla

Complex Love Story

The narrative unfolds over a decade-long period, during which the couple’s love story is marked by tumultuous ups and downs. Jacob Elordi and Cailee Spaeny deliver compelling performances as they bring the complex characters of Elvis and Priscilla to life. The film chronicles their courtship, beginning when Priscilla was a 14-year-old teenager and first crossed paths with the 24-year-old singer in Germany. From classrooms to the grandeur of Graceland, “Priscilla” takes audiences on a transformative journey, showcasing the evolution of a young girl into a fashion icon and a dedicated mother, all while navigating the challenges of fame and her husband’s unpredictable mood swings. “Priscilla” made its debut at the prestigious Venice Film Festival, even amidst the challenges posed by the SAG-AFTRA strike. An interim agreement allowed the film’s cast to attend the festival and promote the movie. Notably, this project was a true independent endeavor for Sofia Coppola. She even humorously revealed an attempt to auction off a pickleball game with Jacob Elordi to raise additional funds. This creative approach was necessitated by the film’s inability to secure the rights to Elvis’s music, forcing the team to think outside the box.
