Priscilla became one of the films that received rave reviews at the 80th Venice Film Festival last Monday.
The film by Sofia Coppola is a movie based on the memoir Elvis and Me written by Elvis Presley's wife, Priscilla Presley.
Well, are you curious about the story contained in the movie? Let's look at the synopsis below!
Priscilla Synopsis
This movie tells the story of a tumultuous romantic relationship that Priscilla shared with the king of Rock N' Roll, Elvis Presley.
Priscilla stars Cailee Spaeny as teenager Priscilla Beaulieu and chronicles her whirlwind relationship with Elvis (played by Jacob Elordi), whom she met at the age of 14.
Priscilla will double as a biopic and a coming of age story. Coppola told Vogue that the movie will focus on Priscilla's life from the age of 15 to 27.
This includes Priscilla's initial meeting with Elvis while he was serving in the military, and the movie will showcase their marriage in 1967.
Although their relationship was highly publicized at the time, it didn't last long and the couple divorced in 1973.
Just like Elvis, Priscilla also has the scope to explore the unhappy ending of Elvis and Priscilla's romance.
When it screened at the Venice Film Festival, Priscilla was greeted with a 7-minute standing ovation after the premiere. The cast and Presley were seen holding back tears, overcome with emotion.
For information, Priscilla will be released in US theaters on October 27.
