Frank Film Club with Maisie Williams

Priscilla: Sofia Coppola was the perfect person to make this

For this week's episode we're not going to beat around the bush; we really loved Sofia Coppola's Priscilla (2023) and if you listen you’ll find out why. The film follows the perspective of Elvis’s teen wife, a rare autobiographical film that actually gives the time of day to a woman of that generation. Not only is this film completely non-judgemental, but Coppola somehow has a way of making us relate to a woman we have nothing in common with. Would we have been more satisfied ending with an explosion of emotions? Not all of us agree. From that soundtrack, to that age gap, to the Presley family response... we have a lot to unpack. Join us, and then listen to some Dolly Parton.
