Description
When teenage Priscilla Beaulieu meets Elvis Presley at a party, the man who is already a meteoric rock-and-roll superstar becomes someone entirely unexpected in private moments: a thrilling crush, an ally in loneliness, a vulnerable best friend.
And in general, it's a terrible situation, even though we were shown the imaginary nobility that they allegedly never got to a certain age before sex - it was enough anyway. By the way, I was surprised at all by the parents who initially blessed their dates.
And the most chilling scenes were when, after their hangouts, she got up for half the night, threw pills and went to school under disapproving stares, and he woke up when she was already returning. Or how she came to live in someone else's family - where he did not live himself, leaving her in a dependent financial situation not even on herself, but on his father.
I somehow missed her personality a little bit in this, hobbies and so on - on the other hand, he embarrassed her with himself and overshadowed all her interests in some kind of early adolescence that it blocked not only the craving for study, but also everything (was she not ready for this predisposed initially, or so acquaintance with the idol hits my head - I don't know), but, of course, the question remains, what did she do at home in his absence. On the other hand, at the same time, the era was different, just stay at home and wait for your husband, hugging the dog, then the child, as it appears. The servants will take care of everything else, there is zero motivation for development, it is even undesirable, except for rare moments when the husband suddenly gets into some kind of teachings and wants to discuss them.
All people are very different, and everyone sees everything from their own angle. From that misunderstanding and the problem. This is not an Elvis defense! He was a very peculiar man. But still, there is a tragedy in his story.
I liked the movie! Kayleigh Spaney and Jacob Elordi did very well. Although when I first saw the posters, I was skeptical. It's worth a look!
The film is worth watching, but for the full picture it is necessary to read articles about these people, which I will do.
A handsome guy, it was nice to look at him. In my opinion, he's better than Austin Butler.
When they showed Elrody on stage and for a few moments how he sang, it didn't turn out to be Elvis at all. I think he had an easier role for him, Elrody is great at playing abusers.
The story of a girl locked in a golden cage for ten years is terrible, but it is filmed empty and flat.
It's just that suddenly some little girl was invited to Elvis. It's not clear at all why her. Because she's 14? Some kind of the most disgusting pedophile stuff, nothing romantic. Why did her parents allow it at all, how did they let her go then...
I want to wash myself after watching to wash it all off.
Are legendary personalities all so sick and broken that they destroyed everyone and everything around them?
I've never delved into the biographies of Elvis and Priscilla at all, but now I wanted to understand how close the film is to the truth.
Elordi perfectly embodied the image of Elvis. The sugary Butler wasn't even lying around.
I noticed that the film was shot by a woman.
I agree with the opinions above, Elvis was madly in love with Priscilla. And the fact that they share a bed while she graduates from school. Well, now, as they say, we condemn.
A pill for sleeping, a pill to wake up.
It couldn't last long.
"The main thing is that the hearth does not go out and you always pick up the phone." - that's the whole secret.
By the way, the voice in the Russian voiceover seemed younger than in the original. This causes a greater dissonance.
A little girl who was just taken advantage of.
A piece of the story about which in the film with Tomomo Hanks - and then they shot more truth.
A fleeting need.
Kayleigh Spaney is cute, but is the Volpi Cup in Venice? I don't know, it's also doubtful. If it weren't for the strange rules of the festival, the cup would have gone to Emma Stone.
Of the advantages, I will note the scenes stylized as a home chronicle, they always look very lamp-like
I didn't know Elvis deeply, and I didn't even immediately realize that this was the one.
They only revealed the relationship a little bit and Elivis, and the heroine herself was not even shown her brief development at least in the end
Well, the film looked easy, unlike the same Elvis, from whom the eye twitched for another week) It was interesting to watch the development of the relationship. And suddenly I found out the history of the family, which I was completely uninterested in knowing before, only the work of Elvis was interested in.
