Sofia Coppola delivered a compelling biographical drama where Cailee Spaenyliterally lived as Priscilla in each and every frame. I think this is the first biographical drama to me where the full focus is on the main protagonist (Priscilla here) where we tend to know about things about Elvis through her eyes. They are not showing any seperate scenes for Elvis rumours, only through Priscilla reading about magazines and newspapers we are seeing. I liked the staging and pacing of the film. (There is a particular shot where Priscilla places her three guns on her clothes. That was one of the greatest shots I had seen in big screens so far).
