Sofia Coppola’s “Priscilla,” which focuses on Priscilla Presley’s life with Elvis Presley, is very accurate to Priscilla’s memoir on which its based. But watching the movie, which stars Cailee Spaeny as Priscilla and “Euphoria“‘s Jacob Elordi as Elvis, you might be a little jarred by the height difference between Elvis and Priscilla in the film. Elordi’s Elvis is really, really tall, especially compared to Spaeny’s Priscilla. In a way, their height difference works well with the themes of the film, which is about, in part, how young Priscilla was when they first met (just 14 to Elvis’s 24) and how out of her depth she was living in Elvis’s world as a teenager.
