Sofia Coppola is reaching new heights as a director, managing to pull off some wonders. Especially talking about versatility, she is definitely a jack of ‘some’ trades. “Priscilla” did become a beloved title of the past year, and it is about to get the OTT love.
So, what is the deal with Priscilla?
Now, the last two years have been really exciting for Elvis Presley fans. Especially Austin Butler’s Elvis (2022), the craze returned for films that adapted the life of the generational singer.
And Sofia Coppola’s attempt didn’t focus much on the rise of Elvis as a star but as a person. The man Elvis shines in the film besides the raw genius and brilliance of Coppola. And talking about brilliance, Jacob Elordi, raise and clap for the man as he manages to continue the rise as the next big star of the industry.
Talking about greatness, the story revolves around Priscilla Beaulieu (Cailee Spaeny) as the film digs deep into their relationship. This version of Elvis is far darker than the 2022 adaptation, discovering the gloomy side of his.
Priscilla comes across Elvis when she was just 14, and Elvis managed to capture her with the charm he possesses.
Also, keeping the characters aside, you need to appreciate the craft of Coppola, managing to create a narrative that is neither too showy nor too empathetic. She has been really prominent about her point of view, making every moment of the film worth watching.
And the film is coming on Max, the official account confirmed that. 23rd February will be the release date on Max, but in India, there is a catch.
JioCinema is constantly ruining the experience as most releases come months after the global release, not only promoting piracy but also there are factors of spoilers. JioCinema is definitely credible enough for its reputation of ruining the experience.
