Wonderful shot: dinner party scene after elvis returns from tour. Priscilla is meeting his gang for the first time and is still an outsider. Camera quickly pans dinner party, then zooms in on Priscilla and rests for a few beats, tracking her expressions. Wonderful characterization of the isolation a newcomer feels when trying to fit into an already formed group.
How does Coppola portray a person’s inner life so well?
Fantastic edit: the stills of the young boy in pain, the old women yelling that later evolve to playing the video for these stills. The context of the videos reveals the boy wasn’t in pain, just surprised by a magic act and the old women wasn’t angry.
