You might have watched Elvis' story in Baz Luhrmann's biopic. Now comes Priscilla, Sofia Coppola's retelling of Priscilla Presley's side.

Based on Presley's 1986 memoir Elvis And Me, Priscilla begins when a teenage Priscilla Beaulieu (Cailee Spaeny) meets Elvis Presley (Jacob Elordi) at a party in 1959 — yes, when Priscilla was still at high school and he was 24 and in the military. A whirlwind and often turbulent romance follows (the Presleys married in 1967 and divorced in 1973), with the film promising time at their iconic residence, Graceland. The film's first look appears intoxicating and emotional — just like the material it follows.
