Priscilla

At a party while still a teenager, Priscilla Beaulieu meets Elvis Presley, already a worldwide sensation. The film follows how their bond begins in allure and awe, then deepens into a private companionship that stands apart from the public persona. In the quiet corners of hotels and the late hours of the night, she finds a confidant and a flawed partner who offers warmth amid loneliness. The portrait focuses on a young woman who negotiates power, secrecy, and affection, showing how fame transforms a tender attraction into a complex, influential relationship that changes both of their lives. The movie leans into the private rather than the public show, focusing on the tension between yearning and the responsibilities that accompany fame.

Directed by Sofia Coppola, Priscilla is drawn from the life of Priscilla Presley with help from Sandra Harmon. The project marks Coppola's continued dedication to intimate, character driven storytelling in a feature focusing on a famous romance narrative arc today.

With a budget of 20,000,000, the film grossed 30,140,906 worldwide, reflecting modest but steady performance for a prestige drama. The numbers suggest a solid return for a mid range biographical romance in the box office market.

Critics have noted Coppola's restrained, intimate approach and Cailee Spaeny's quietly strong portrayal as Priscilla. The film centers on how fame reshapes desire and autonomy, and how a teenage romance with an iconic figure grapples with power, privacy, and personal identity in a messy public spotlight.
