Priscilla
Not really the kind of thing I would normally go for but we had to use up our free cinema tickets and the alternatives were Aquaman, Wish, Anyone But You...
It's good. Well made, well scripted, very stylish, fine performances from the two leads, and yet... I don't know that I really enjoyed it.
I like the fact that it is very much her story, not his - it doesn't dwell too much on everything you already know about Elvis, and his music hardly features in the film at all. It shows how badly he treated her but at the same time it takes great pains not to make him out as a villain - in fact, you end up feeling sorry for him as much as for her.
There are some subtle allusions to the real villain of the piece, Col Parker, but he doesn't ever appear in the film - you just feel him as a malign influence off-camera.
It does feel like it pulls its punches a bit, although the flip side of that is that it's not at all sensationalist or mawkish, which is a good thing.
Overall, it's a desperately sad story.
