I enjoyed it. It's an interesting movie that explores the notorious relationship between Priscilla and Elvis with strong directing, good production and strong performances from the cast members. Sofia Coppola is an interesting filmmaker as she has made some great movies in the past like "The Virgin Suicides" and "Lost in Translation". Here, her direction was good as her directing was able to handle the themes, tone and atmosphere pretty well through an honest depiction. Many of the production, costumes and make-up help perfectly capture its time era. The writing, while is predictable due to the narrative being the standard biographical story, remains interesting as it does a pretty good job on exploring the themes of isolation, innocence being robbed, heartbreak, solitude, and stardom. The soundtrack was really good alongside with the camerawork and production design. All of the performances are pretty good as Callie Spaney does a fantastic portrayal of Priscilla and Jacob Elordi also did a pretty good job on his portrayal of Elvis as well. The dialogue between the characters were pretty good although there were certain dialogue moments from Elordi that were a bit muffled. Most of the pacing is good but there were some pacing problems that did drag the movie a little. Especially with the second act as the second act felt a bit lost and some of the color presentations were a bit dull which could have used some improvements. Overall, while not my favorite Sofia Coppola movie, this movie was still an interesting watch.
