Priscilla



Pricilla Beaulieu met Elvis Presley at a party in West Germany. She was 14; he was 24. Elvis was instantly smitten with Priscilla. She moved to Graceland at age 17, and attended her final year of high school in Memphis. They were married from 1966 to 1973. That's certainly a story for cinema, and we are finally getting a movie. A 24 brings us Priscilla, directed by  Sofia Coppola and based on the book Elvis and Me by Priscilla Presley. Cailee Spaeny looks young, vulnerable, and excited as Priscilla, and Jacob Elordi portrays an appropriately malevolent young Elvis. Priscilla will be in theaters on November 3.

Malevolent? That's a pretty strong condemnation of the guy.

Why was it filmed mainly in the dark ?

I had to raise the lumen level of my screen and then, when I had finished watching the trailer, I was blinded by the light !!!
