I was struck by how little actually happens in the movie. But I think that was the point of the movie. At least from my perspective, she is trying to get across Priscilla's feelings of loneliness. Both in the fact that she was always alone when Elvis was away, and alone in the sense that no one else could possibly know what it was like to be married to the most famous person on the planet. But i just don't think this is going to hit with audiences.

I doubt in the movie you see a lot of her affairs or that she left Elvis because she already had a relationship with the married man Mike Stone (from months). Escaping from the Golden cage and "terrible Elvis" is something more useful for the victimism of the protagonist...It's Coppola's style. So the audience can sympathize with the poor innocent female character, destroying the male one. Typical and so obvious 👎🏻

Pictures of Her and Elvis diving In pool; her and Elvis on Vacation in Hawaii, the Wedding photos, pictures Of Her and Elvis in the snow, riding in that go cart, playing football. They were.both always Smiling!! So why does Her so called truth of being such a lonely captive outweigh the smiles and happiness in These photos. I have a hard time believing her.

@@marybethschreiter7009 He was chosen on purpose to underline the physical and age difference, because he has absolutely nothing similar to Elvis. This film, already from the choice of the cast, has the specific purpose of showing Elvis' negativity in favor of Priscilla's usual victimism. I highly doubt that their relationship was so terrible....but obviously she likes talking about the good sides in TV interviews, showing false tears, then by chance a film like that comes out.

The Virgin Suicides has always been my favorite film of Sofia Coppola's. Nothing else has been able to match it.

I just recentlly watched Sophia Coppola's film 'The Beguiled'. There are a few of her films that snuck by me, but I so loved it. so much. I am really happy to hear your review.I am interested in Priscilla. Its never about character arcs its more about character connection with Sophia's stuff. But shes so good with actors and her movies are so fun yet tortured. I noticed how structured The beguiled was. I Think it was exacty 90 minutes, but still had so much room to breathe. I love a tight ninety minute movie, I am excited to see Priscilla even with the warnings of your review. Sophia may be a nepo baby but her movies like wes anderson movies are something to look forward to in cinema for me anyway. Thanks for the review!

I think you are very underrated went through your channel great videos. All the luck to you keep making these nonsensical rambling videos looking like a dream.

Marie Antoinette is a top 20 all time movie for me. I have been unimpressed with Sophia's work before and since. They are fine movies that are well shot and technically sound but kinda cold imo. I did not see MA on the big screen and it's one of my big movie regrets. This looked like the typical chick flick and don't know why I saw it but I remember watching it and was in love with it from start to finish. As soon as it concluded I immediately rewatched it. I'm in my 50s and male so it shouldn't be my type of movie but it was so gorgeous and beautiful. It's become my mood altering film to watch even for a few moments to just lightnen my day. Being a child of the early 80's the music was the tipping point that made MA a classic for me. It's one of my alltime favorite soundtracks and it makes Marie and her situation timeless. I always root for Sophia to have another great film but maybe MA was her Citizen Kane and that's okay.

Marie Antoinette is her best imo and I'll take The Virgin Suicides over Lost as well. I have been underwhelmed at everything post Marie as well. She still has gorgeous films with very good cinematography and she has a keen ear for music and her scores are also good to great. I just wished she picked better films. A remake of The Beguiled and Priscilla are bad choices again imo. That's the beauty of film. It's all conjecture. We all have different tastes and likes. That's what makes awards for anything artistic so stupid.

I watched your review of “Killers of the Flower Moon” before I saw the movie, and after seeing it, it almost feels like we saw different movies. I honestly feel that it is one Scorsese’s very best movies, easily the best since at least “The Wolf of Wall Street”. Other reviewers have complained that there isn’t enough from the Osage perspective, but I really felt Lily Gladstone conveyed the pain of seeing her family and her tribe being massacred perfectly. She’s the emotional center of the movie and she captures that emotion perfectly. I can see where you’re coming from with regards to Leo, but I think in this movie he’s playing a very conflicted man very well. He loves his wife, and he loves money. And he does whatever his uncle tells him, which is really his downfall. And then we come to Robert De Niro. I’ve been watching this guy for many, many years, and I honestly think this is one of his very best performances. He pretends to be this kindly patriarch but he’s really a soulless vampire-like villain, except instead of blood, he lives on money and power. And De Niro plays this monster perfectly, never really raising his voice or going into a caricature of himself in other movies. He’s one of the most original characters Bob has ever brought to life, up there with Travis Bickle or Rupert Pupkin. I think I realized while I was watching “Killers” that it is one of the greatest American crime films, a type of film Scorsese knows very well. But this movie is obviously different than the mafia stories he’s given us in the past. In this movie, the “mafia” is De Niro and his fellow wealthy white conspirators, with De Niro as The Godfather/patriarch figure. Writing all this makes me realize I need to see this amazing movie again. Hopefully you will too.

Finally checked this film out and felt such a sense of deja vu while watching. I feel like i’ve seen this type of story and relationship dynamic done before a lot. But I enjoyed it overall, even through its predictability, I was engaged and thought both actor did a really good job even if it doesn’t feel the most natural. 7/10 for me

2nd film in the Elvis Cinematic Universe, which character will be next to receive his own stand alone film?

I like the film a lot and loved hearing your perspective. I agree that Sofia is limited and I believe most directors are. I think much like Wes Anderson she has created a brand and is best when embracing what makes her filmmaking unique.

I was entertained for 2 hours👍

Some great points here. The movie didn’t blow me away but there was incredible passages. Somewhere is one of my favorites of her’s along with Bling Ring.

I see this film being an adaptation of a memoir but with Sofia Coppola's style oozing out of it. I got what I expected to get from a Sofia coppola film and I left satisfied. I like all her movies that I have seen and she seems to have a divisive style that some people will appreciate while other wont. The only unanimously loved movie she has done I think is lost in translation and that's it. She has developed an audience for her craft and I can proudly say I am a member of that audience. I really enjoyed this movie and unlike you, I thought Cailee's performance as Priscilla was really good along with her co-star's. Both were fantastic in my eyes while I also really enjoyed the original score and cinematography which just screams Sofia coppola to me. Looking forward to seeing what Sofia will do next.

Most beautiful and insightful movie reviewer.

Hair, makeup and drama were too subtle, I expected more intrigue like Marie Antoinette. I love the miniseries and I'm a fan of Priscilla and Elvis.

And I can't help but wonder if her latest film might also follow the same pattern.

BOOORING & REALLY REALLY SLOOW. Terrible casting and acting. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. My RATING: 0/5. No point to this film. No matter how much you may like Sofia. This one is a DISASTER. Her worst movie yet. Its just BAD (and no - not bad ass). You will NOT KNOW ONE TRUE THING about Priscilla or Elvis after leaving the theater. I promise you. "There are so many ironies after Elvis' death. For instance, Elvis took definite measures to exclude certain people from his personal estate by leaving everything to Lisa Marie. But due to a strange set of circumstances , including the consecutive deaths of the executors, Vernon and Minnie Mae, the very person he did not want to have control, now does control the estate." --- one of Elvis' best friends, and soprano singer Kathy Westmoreland 1987 Elvis KNEW that Priscilla was a DISHONEST GOLD DIGGER. And so did many people around Elvis. This is a ONE SIDED film OF LIES, COVERING UP HER LIES. Elvis WAS RIGHT: CREDIBILITY FAIL #1: Priscilla stole from Lisa Marie's trust fund by paying herself $900,000, out of Lisa Marie's trust fund WITHOUT HER KNOWLEDGE OR CONSENT!! Total financial damage: $16 million. CREDIBILITY FAIL #2: It's believed now that Marco Garibaldi/Garcia EMBEZZLED $15 MILION from Lisa Marie's trust fund. Co-trustees Priscilla Wagner Beaulieu and Barry Siegel pressured Lisa Marie to sell 85% of her EPE-shares because it would be financially advantageous for them as trustees of Lisa Marie's trust fund. Never mind Lisa Marie's financial interests! CREDIBILITY FAIL #3: After taxes Lisa Marie had $45 MILLION left from the sale of her EPE-shares. That money was squandered by Barry Siegel; he invested it in his own company, that went broke. He never paid Lisa Marie back. CREDIBILITY FAIL #4: After all her uncorroborated accusatory nonsense that Elvis was a creepy child molestor --- she DEMANDS --- IN COURT OF LAW --- TO BE BURIED RIGHT NEXT TO HIS COFFIN SIDE BY SIDE FOR ETERNITY IN HIS BACKYARD.. moving Elvis' beloved mother and fathers resting places!!!! ....... even though she divorced him 50 years ago and has had a child with another man and her own life with other people for half a century. Priscilla ruined her own credibility when she stole millions of dollars from Elvis trust without her own daughters consent. She stole from her child. She is an untrustworthy gold digger and fraudster. THE SAD REALITY THAT SOFIA JUST GETS WRONG IN THIS TOTAL FABRICATION FILM: Priscilla Wagner Beaulieu is only interested in being famous and rich. She has exploited Elvis, Lisa Marie and now Riley, Finley and Harper. Priscilla is a narcissist who uses people and then discards them. EPE should boycott Priscilla's strategic fantasy of lies. HOW in God's name or otherwise, can you or anyone else BELIEVE PRISCILLA, or worse support her? She is attacking Elvis' name and USING HIS LAST NAME (illegally I might add) with NO EVIDENCE. and NO EYEWITNESSES. Come on.

I totally agree with the moments where she was yelling at Elvis. It felt like a first take every time. Coppola could have pulled more out of her. I wanted more hoarseness and genuine emotion in her voice.

Anyone interested in this might be interested in tv movie called ring of fire. About June Carter Cash. Its quite interesting to see the story of the woman behind the man :)

We all would die in her position. We would be Sophia Coppola, not ourselves anymore.

why is this movie the same as the 1988 mini series same lines just different rooms i might wright a script about the memphis mafia and there stories it would be much better than hearing priscillas version of events all the time its getting old

The premise of the movie is that they met when she was 14 but Priscilla was also dating other soldiers in Germany. I didn't know much about Priscilla until I did some research and it was an eye opener. When Coppola said she didn't make the movie for Elvis fans, that tells me all you need to know. Priscilla had been deceptive most of her life !!

Hey Lisa Marie hated this movie and said that she didn’t see her father in Sofias fantasy script. Basically she said Priscilla was used. Sofia portrayed Priscilla as a little girl playing dressed-up and contracted a grotesquely tall actor to play Elvis to help to frame the relationship in a certain light in order to meet the requirements of the Me-too movement, imho. In reality although they met when she was 14 in 1960 at the end of his tour in Germany, he went home to his real girlfriend Anita Wood and didn’t see Priscilla for years (although she kept writing & begging to meet). After Anita broke up with Elvis and left Graceland in August of 1962, Priscilla could finally have a real chance and months later in 1963 when she was weeks from turning 18, she arrived in Memphis, first staying with Vernon and wife until she carried out her plan to slowly move to Graceland. During their “friendship”, Elvis spent most of the time in California filming and dating other women, some very seriously - like Ann Margret. But Priscilla never cared sufficiently about the situation because her goal and the goal of her parents was for her to be Mrs. Presley. In the end Priscillas stepfather allegedly threatened Elvis with bad publicity and Col. Parker also became afraid for lost in profits. So, a 8 minute wedding was hastily arranged in Vegas. Of course it was not going to work.

Half of your "facts " are not even true. Elvis and Priscilla were in serious relationship, not just" friends. "Ann was a quick fling and he dated most of his leading ladies, during the filming of his movies. He dumped Ann because she ran her mouth about their affair by lying about being "engagement" to Elvis. He was pissed. There's zero proof that Priscilla father forced Elvis into marriage. That was Elvis's own decision. What you're posting was made up by the defunct Memphis Mafia, who had some kinda unnatural grudge against Priscilla. They changed their stories from" Priscilla Is everything elvis wanted to .... yeah he told me personally 5 min before the wedding he didn't want to get married".🙄Fact is, he chose Priscilla. The colonel botched the wedding. Both Elvis and Priscilla wanted a more imitate reception, but they both let Parker control the situation.

I mostly really like Priscilla (it’s in my top ten of the year). There are just 2 issues I have with it. 1. Trying to pass off that actress as a 14 or 15 year old was distracting. I know there isn’t really a better way to do it, but to me it was almost the equivalent of having a white man play a character that is supposed to be experiencing anti-Black racism; she acts very well but does not fit the role, and it is distracting. 2. Several scenes were weirdly dark in a way that was neither aesthetically pleasing nor made sense in universe (Priscilla’s dad questioning Elvis in the living room with the lights off being the most obvious). I know it was a choice, but I think it was a bad one. Everything else I loved. Especially the complexity of the main relationship and the different ways they filmed Priscilla to make her size more or less relevant in each scene. 8/10, very good, quality of performances was the best part.

I had some issues with it too but I thought she for sure looked around 16 early on at the army base. It’s when she’s at the religious school surrounded by other girls, that she looks a bit out of place.

I was lucky enough to watch the 1990 TV miniseries based off the same book Sofia is accessing. It doesn’t aim to be artsy award bait like Sofia but it managed to be much more memorable than this. And brave too. The miniseries doesn’t hide the ugliness of what Elvis did to Priscilla or why she finally ended it and that leaves you with a much more logical story than Sofia Coppolas cowardly offering.

They needed a few Elvis songs so younger audiences good see what the big deal was. It was too much of a downer for me, even in the beginning. Her parents didn’t protect her enough. Reminds me of the parents of little boys letting Michael Jackson have his wat with them and not notice how inappropriate it was. This movie me reminded me of the Man in Black with the slow descent into drugs and some madness. Also it didn’t address him constantly wanting to hang out with the boys all the time. Seems she would have had a fight about that early on. Also where was the child at the end. The clothing, shoes, makeup and hair were great and the actor and actress were good but that seemed almost wasted on a subpar story line.

Elvis had the same upbringing as Michael Jackson would... many years later. He also lived in an ultra protective cloud where saying no to him was never an option. He was a 'forever child' and that brings with it some severe mental deviations from the norm. But the 'Priscilla' movie is an extremely poor 'one-side' account of what actually happened. Priscilla was/is no wallflower. She knew exactly what she wanted and used manipulation to achieve it. She saw a man-child and made herself indispensable to him. She manipulated her family to be allowed to visit him. She wanted the huge house, money and servants to attend to her every whim. There're many women who have had terrible experiences in their life... Priscilla is just not one of them.

I thought this was going to be Priscilla: Queen of the Desert.

It felt like they were playing dress up too much of the time. The budget seemed really high with the costumes. I think she could have chose a new way of translating Pricilla’s loneliness of the time other then showing elegant empty rooms and long drawn out visual shots.

Priscilla is a beautifully shot film. While it hits the same notes on loop, I think it was necessary given the topic. What really hit home for me was the tightrope walk between a nostalgia for a bygone era and the cynicism of hindsight. You can tell that there is much about the time and the Elvis & Priscilla relationship that Sofia holds great reverence for, but it is not beyond reproach as there are obvious cringeworthy aspects of the story that deserve to be pinpointed. It only stumbled for me in the last act where it becomes very repetitive. I still would very much recommend this film, especially as a companion piece to last years Baz Lurhmann film.
