Jordannn, i have a questionnnnnn. in the scene that they fight after dinner. It's one shot, but I feel like the camera is moving, like shaking, did you notice it? or is just me? And if so, why do you think it is? I feel like it's unprofessional, but I don't think Taylor neglects something like that, im pretty sure she hired people who know what they're doing. What you think? Thanks

Taylor has always said how she wrote this song to write out her feelings but then it became so much more when fans latched on and related to it so well. So I love that she adds the women in the bookstore listening to her read and look with such empathy and relativeness. Love every little detail she put in for us❤️

[@vivianyh]

This is Taylor Swift's song I relate to the most. When I was 18 years old, I met a guy, 7 years older than me, and it was all amazing. He lived in another city, and on my first night visiting him, we went to his sister's house. Everything was wonderful while we were together and I felt he was the love of my life. 2 years later, out of the blue, he asks for a break, and I just don't understand why, but I accept. A month after this "break", I look for him, hoping to pick up where we left off, but he breaks up with me. I confess that I was so numb, that I didn't feel so much pain at that moment. A few days later he calls me by text message and wants explanations as to why I was talking to a friend (who he knew) while we were on break (it was just my friend trying to calm me down about everything). At that moment, I felt the pain. Looking back now, I still don't feel like my old self. I'm 28 years old now, and I still cry to this song every time... Thanks to anyone who reads this, I never let this story out and this video made me want to open up and try to free myself from my demons.

[@JordanOrme]

Something similar happened to me when I was 16. The guy was 4/5 years older than me and extremely jealous and possessive about me and my friends or “who I was looking” anywhere we go. He breakup with me calling me crazy and make some threats (i have to go to another house for a while) and looking back, I lost a little piece of me at that time… its hard, for 2 years I just cant like someone without the fear that everything happens again.

This song is basically Swiftie's anthem at this point. Taylor said that the fans changed her perspective of the song, from feeling pain everytime she play this on stage, to remembering us screaming the lyrics and crying our heart together with her. I remember first time I listen to this song, I can picture it in my head because the 5 minutes version was already detailed. And now with this short film, I finally can see the whole picture moving (especially with the line dancing around the kitchen in the refrigerator light), thats exactly how I picture it on the song.

[@CunninghamSydney]

I actually really love the breakup shot where it's only focusing on Sadie, because at that point Dylan is pulling away from part of the picture. By breaking up he's now removing himself from their story and she's no longer the "main character" she's the ONLY character and by not showing him and his reaction I think its also a great visual representation to show that that feeling of aloneness that Sadie has by focusing only on her reaction.

You know how sometimes you visualize a music video when you're listening to a song? Taylor got really close to how I imagined this one being. The lyrics being so vivid definitely helps. His point about the translation of the lyrics into visuals made me feel a little vindicated since I told someone that I wanted to make music videos similar to this (heavy on the storytelling) and they called me "basic". I'm glad someone whose opinion I value kinda agrees with me in a way!

[@aureliaavalon]

I can't believe someone's calling your personal preference on a heavily storytelling type of video 'basic'. Just go with what inspires you, because in the end you're the one telling it and showcasing it and not them.

[@pinkgiraffe378]

I really hope Taylor does more short films in the future, bc this was incredible.

[@gliiterr]

I literally cannot stop thinking about this. It put the same hole in my chest that a real breakup does. The kitchen scene was stomach churning. Made me realize that the feeling never really goes away. You just forget about it for a while until something replicates it so perfectly, bringing you back in time. She is an artistic genius and the acting is impeccable.

[@olimakiella]

It's also the things that she doesn't say. At The Breaking Point, when Sadie's character comes in, she's wearing a man's shirt - likely Dylan's character. In my experience, a man's shirt is donned when you stay over and have nothing else to put on, inferring she'd been there for a while. He waited 'til after and then broke up with her, which just... breaks my heart. 'cos that shit hurts, man. It really does.

[@alwayselmay]

The fact that it happened to Taylor Swift in real life makes it hurt more. My heart omoo. I'm not even brokenhearted but this song made me 😭😭😭

[@Icycicle]

I still Amazed with how Taylor can accidentally create such masterpiece song with her bandmates. She said on SNL that she was in sad and gloomy mood in speaknow rehearsal, and then she just pick her guitar and play along the chords and just let go what she feel inside, and then her bandmates join with her. Thank God her bandmate record it and her mother keep the record. She is indeed a genius.

I loved this reaction, it wasn't focusing obsessively on who the song is about but rather focusing on Taylor's skill as a film maker and what a wonderful story teller she is and how her song captured real relationships so well, how relatable this is. I loved this. Some of the swifties are being really immature and only focusing on bashing Jake, I think they should grow up and appreciate Taylor and her song, celebrate this masterpiece of a film x music video rather than focusing on who she wrote this about a decade ago.

[@lanadeamond7063]

This song is just hits me. 2 years ago when I was 19 I met this guy who is 9 years older than me. He is basically the HR at the place where I worked part-time job. He started texting me and after my part-time contract finished we started going out and become exclusive. It was fine at first but as time goes on I realized our values doesn't match. I barely gets his friends. Just like in the All Too Well short film, when he is with his friends he is acted a little bit different and his friends are all older than me. He wants our relationship to be more public on social media while I like to keep things private, but I follow along because I feel like maybe its (keeping things private) just a facade that I created to protect myself. But turns out it doesn't. I realize overtime that he is so misogynistic and manipulative. Doubting yourself when you are speaking out because your partner is much older than you so I end up apologizing for things that was not even my fault. Feels like you are the one that is immature when you are just stating what you want out of the relationship. I am so thankful I have the courage to end it even after 1 year of dating. Ps. The dance therapy part is me dancing to this song in my room trying so hard not to cry

[@AuroraChristine__]

Not sure if you said this or not bc I got too excited when I saw this, BUT notice how the shots in the first segment are all closer and sadie and dylan are physically closer. Then when the first crack in the glass chapter begins, sadie and dylan are further away, the camera is further away, and it really intensifies the friction happening between them. The tug and pull of the music video so beautifully mirrors the tug and pull of the lyrics. I analyzed the music video for a film class and let👏me👏tell👏you... this was one of the more challenging things I've analyzed simply because there isn't a linear path the elements take. Its so beautifully done.

[@AuroraChristine__]

Also the colors in the lighting when they fell in love were very warm, vintage yellows and oranges. When things started to fall apart, it was very dark and cold color-wise. Then during "are you real" and "the remembering" both the dark and warm vintage colors are used and it beautifully captures the bittersweet emotions of reminiscing and potentially romanticizing the good parts of an abusive relationship. You hang on to those moments like theyre everything you have. Its brilliant

This film and song BROKE me!! it's so beautiful and heartbreaking

[@bennysmemories]

A music video about forgetting and renewing their own self. No more chances, it's enough. STREAM RED TAYLOR'S VERSION NOW!

Your perspective as an editor is appreciated!

[@chairsandpotatoes]

I love how emotionally invested you were in this.

3:37 that cigarette burn is interesting maybe it's an easter egg. In my theory, that cigarette burn is similar to a rabbit hole. So inside of that rabbit hole, it's wonderland and that's the title of the bonus track in 1989 by Taylor Swift

[@fiorellaval3532]

OMG the dance therapy! I lost it 😁 loved your reaction ✨🌻

[@anushkapande2085]

I 200% love how this entire video was a perfect representation of the swifties. 70% of *ohgosh what a masterpiece* 30% of *the a c t i n g* 100% of *TAYLOR YOU GODESS - followed by ugly crying*

[@paullopez2021]

I'm new to your channel - and I loved your take on this! I personally believe the best-seller ATW book is partially meant to symbolize this song going to #1 on the Hot 100, among many other things.

The warm light and the cold blue light from the fridge represents her and him

[@gelifilms]

Aaaaa luv luv your reaction, insights and analyses always!! AND WE LOVE YOUR THERAPY DANCES AS ALWAYS

[@ainachan29]

If you actually look at the lightings, there are significance to it. The golden warm light portraying her love and his bluish cold light as a sign of his coldness and falling out of love.

That long take of them kissing was actually improv according to Taylor in her interview with Jimmy Fallon. Also, that’s her favorite scene! (And obviously, the fans’ favorite, too.)

[@sarastyles2949]

I though the argument in the kitchen was the improv 😶

[@collettecabiles]

@@sarastyles2949 you know, you’re probably right 😅 I’m a bit biased about the kissing scene ‘cause the first time I watched it, it took my breath away. Haha!

[@heidic85]

@@sarastyles2949 Yeah that was the improv
