I just watched it. I have alot of thoughts about it. One things that stuck out to me is the lack of chemistry between the actors. I feel this was intentional as the way its set up to portray their relationship. The viewer feels like a outsider looking in on how off the whole relationship feels. I can say that her parents were the biggest failure I have ever seen. You let your 17 daughter move to live with her boyfriend and his family on the otherside of the word. On his father's word of her being supervised. His father is going to be on his side always. No matter his behavior. Red flag #1
Spolier
Ex. (Priscilla slept for 2 days after Elvis gives her a drug and no one not even his grandmother cared about calling a doctor?) Red flag #2
Elvis poping pills like no tomorrow. Red flag #3
His family being controlling and not allow her to exist outside of house. Afraid of friends coming over and Priscilla playing in the yard. Red flag # 4
Elvis coming back and being controlling about her looks and how she dresses. The beehive does age her but makes her look even younger. Like she is playing dress up.
Priscilla is young and no amount of clothes and hairstyles is going to change that it's like Elvis is trying to model her into his perfect mother figure. And if you know about Elvis' mother you know it was interesting. Red flag #6
His temper and how quick it flies up. How he is testing her seeing what he can get away with. Screaming at her. Sending her home to her parent. Making her try drig with him. Etc.

Honestly what are your thoughts or takes?
She was 14 when they met. It's a movie that should be more about what it's actually about, pedophilia. Not going to see it. Fuck Elvis.
