What moved you the most about the film and what did you identify the most in it?
00:05
The ending.
00:06
[applause]
00:13
It's difficult and very difficult to sit and watch a film about you and about your life and about your love.
00:21
[music]
00:27
Sorry.
00:28
Priscilla Presley in tears at the Venice Film Festival while reminiscing over her relationship
00:34
with the late Elvis Presley.
00:36
He was the package deal.
00:38
His good looks, his voice.
00:40
There is no one like him.
00:42
The 78-year-old surprised a crowd of journalists by taking questions at a press conference
00:46
for Sofia Coppola's biopic about her life, which Priscilla also produced.
00:51
[music]
01:00
I think Sofia did an amazing job.
01:03
She did her homework.
01:06
We spoke a couple of times.
01:08
And I really put everything out for her that I could.
01:13
What about boys at school?
01:14
Must be some handsome ones.
01:16
[music]
01:19
Very difficult for my parents to understand that Elvis would be so interested in me and why.
01:27
And I think, I really do think because I was more of a listener, Elvis would pour his heart out to me
01:34
in every way, in Germany.
01:36
His fears, his hopes, the loss of his mother, which he never ever got over.
01:44
And I was the person who really, really sat there to listen and to comfort him.
01:52
Elvis was extremely sensitive.
01:55
You know, you see him singing on stage and he has so much charisma, so much power.
02:00
He was like a wild tiger coming out of a cage on stage.
02:06
Oh my gosh, to see him perform, it was an experience.
02:11
But Elvis, deep inside, was very sensitive and a very caring human being.
02:16
Even though I was 14, I was actually a little bit older in life, not in numbers.
02:23
And that was the attraction.
02:26
And people think, oh, it was sex, it was this.
02:30
Not at all.
02:31
I never had sex with him.
02:33
He was very kind, very soft, very loving.
02:37
But he also respected the fact I was only 14 years old.
02:41
We were more in mind and thought.
02:46
And that was our relationship.
02:51
Yes, he called me when he came back to the States.
02:56
That was also part of our relationship, telling me all his woes and what was happening
03:02
and how upset he was on the screen with the director.
03:07
And I don't know why he put so much trust in me, but he did.
03:11
And I never, ever, ever told anyone that I was seeing him.
03:16
And that was another issue that he loved, is the fact that I never gave him up in any way.
03:26
I never told anyone at school that I was seeing him.
03:30
So we built a relationship, and that relationship went on until, yes, I left.
03:38
And it wasn't because I didn't love him.
03:41
He was the love of my life.
03:43
It was the lifestyle that was so difficult for me, and I think any woman can relate to that.
03:50
But it didn't mar our relationship.
03:52
We still remain very, very close.
03:55
And, of course, we had our daughter.
03:58
And I made sure that he saw her all the time.
04:02
And it was like we never left each other.
04:06
So I want to make that clear. Thank you.
04:08
Thank you. Thank you very much.
