In a way, Priscilla feels like a culmination of everything Sofia Coppola has learned across 25 years of filmmaking. Based on Priscilla Presley’s best-selling memoir Elvis & Me, the film begins in 1959, when she was a 14-year old schoolgirl named Priscilla Beaulieu . When she first meets Elvis Presley at the U.S. Air Force base in Germany where both he and her father are stationed, the 24-year old musician is already a global superstar.
I would imagine having a smaller budget would force you to get creative in some ways that might benefit a film versus having $200 million at your disposal. Good things can come out of it because you have to get more creative. I had to cut something like 10 pages of the Priscilla script right before filming because we lost a week of production. That was really hard at the time but it made me really have to focus on what elements were most important to the story.
