Priscilla
When teenager Priscilla Beaulieu meets Elvis Presley at a party, he is already a meteoric rock 'n' roll superstar. In private and behind the scenes, however, this man reveals completely different, unexpected sides: exciting crush, ally in loneliness, vulnerable best friend.
In this highly emotional and grippingly detailed portrait, Sofia Coppola tells of love, fantasy and fame from the perspective of young Priscilla, illuminating the hidden sides of a great American legend: Elvis and Priscilla's long courtship and their turbulent marriage, from the American army base in Germany to the dreamlike estate at Graceland.
PRISCILLA is an adaptation of the memoirs of the ex-wife of the "King" in images that are more emotional than judgmental, but Coppola's analytical eye also discovers that this life was ultimately controlled by men throughout. Newcomer Cailee Spaeny received the Coppa Volpi in Venice for her sensitive performance in the title role.
