Anthony Lane reviews Sofia Coppola’s bio-pic “Priscilla,” starring Cailee Spaeny as Priscilla Presley, and “Dream Scenario,” Kristoffer Borgli’s surreal comedy starring Nicolas Cage, Julianne Nicholson, and Michael Cera.
Elvis is played by Jacob Elordi, who, by my estimate, is about three times taller than his co-star. As a result, the rapport between Elvis and Priscilla appears to be powered less by loving hearts than by simple hydraulics; he has to lean over and down as if hinged, like an industrial crane, for a word in her ear. Nonetheless, the two of them fuse, sharing pangs of homesickness, and it’s not long before Elvis is introduced to Priscilla’s mother, Ann , and stepfather, Paul .
We need both movies, I would argue: last year’s frenzied act of worship and now this irreverent response, all the more potent for being so still and small. “You’re the only girl I ever loved, the only girl I want to be with,” Elvis says to Priscilla. He sounds like a cheap song. If “Dream Scenario,” a new film written and directed by Kristoffer Borgli, is one of Cage’s most fulfilling ventures, it’s because it allows him to trade so richly in the unforeseen.
