When teenage Priscilla Beaulieu meets Elvis Presley at a party, the man who is already a meteoric rock-and-roll superstar becomes someone entirely unexpected in private moments: a thrilling crush, an ally in loneliness, a vulnerable best friend. Through Priscilla’s eyes, Sofia Coppola tells the unseen side of a great American myth in Elvis and Priscilla's long courtship and turbulent marriage, from a German army base to his dream-world estate at Graceland, in this deeply felt and ravishingly detailed portrait of love, fantasy, and fame.

Critics Consensus

With Cailee Spaeny's performance in the title role leading the way, Priscilla sees Sofia Coppola taking a tender yet clear-eyed look at the often toxic blend created by mixing first love and fame.

Audience Says

Priscilla is well-acted and suitably sad, but be prepared for a slow-moving movie that can feel more like a series of scenes than a complete story.

Sofia Coppola is gifted at capturing the interiority of her young female characters.

Sydney Morning Herald

As Priscilla, Cailee Spaeny effortlessly spans her journey from wide-eyed adolescence to disillusioned young womanhood, while Australia’s Jacob Elordi... has no difficulty in evoking Elvis’s glamour.

Rated: 3.5/5

It is fascinating and touches on some of the themes Coppola explores in this remarkable movie.

Memphis Flyer

From Lost in Translation to Marie Antoinette to Somewhere, Coppola keeps returning to lonely young women who see beauty in the world that others miss. In Priscilla, she has found her perfect subject.

Jeffrey Overstreet

Looking Closer

Spaeny, convincingly playing a 14-year-old dressed up to look 24, and respectfully adored by cinematographer Philippe Le Sourd, is so magnetic in every scene of Priscilla that even Jacob Elordi’s Elvis almost dissolves when she’s onscreen beside her.

Rated: B+

Jaylan Salah

InSession Film

Coppola’s anti-fairytale was doused in perfume and pink wallpaper to zoom in on a woman at the heart of manipulation, gaslighting, grooming, and possessive love. But it works, a great companion piece to Coppola’s filmography...

This was a better movie than I expected overall, and it was nice to see a film as a contrast to the previously released Elvis film. Although I was not fond of the actor who played Elvis and did not find him wholly convincing, it was interesting to see a darker side to things and to not see him painted in some odd sainthood or worship. The whole relationship between them is definitely unnerving, and I still cannot quite fathom what her parents were thinking. Different time I guess, but still. Eye Opening!

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

I thought it was very dull. The story line could have been a lot better. She barely spoke and this was suppose to be about her life with Elvis. Not a very good movie.

Great movie. They aged Priscilla really well and really gave her the spotlight as opposed to the Elvis movie with Austin Butler. Jacob also plays a better Elvis than Austin.

There's a reason Lisa Marie didn't approve of the script. It felt like the film purposely trashed Elvis at every opportunity while portraying Priscilla as the victim who was completely helpless. Sofia Coppola is such a great director but I didn't enjoy this film at all.
