In her 25 years of making films, Sofia Coppola has always found the poetry behind the headlines, the banality in the glamour, the soul in the superficial.
“(Priscilla) wasn’t looking to make a movie out of the story,” Coppola told The Associated Press in a recent interview.
They shot out of order: On some days, Spaeny was teenage Priscilla in the morning and adult, pregnant Priscilla after lunch.
Though there are endless photographs and video footage of Elvis and Priscilla, those photographs have disappeared, Coppola said.
Before the film's premiere in Venice, Coppola said she wasn’t making “Priscilla” for Elvis fans.
