“I was never good at telling jokes but the punchline goes I’ll get older but your lovers stay my age” SUCH A GOOD LINE AND YOU DIDNT EVEN NOTICE IT 😭
One of the things I like so much about this video is the casting - people who know who Dylan and Sadie are tend to also know their ages and get VERY UNCOMFORTABLE watching them kiss (or being “naked” in bed together). Which leads to the really good question: why didn’t we react that way to the IRL situation? (Instead, society turned her into a joke.) 🤔
And not only that, but Dylan is kinda known to be this charismatic and charming guy. When we think of him, we think good guy. It challenges that perception to see him as this manipulative guy, watching him gaslight her and all that. The casting was just perfect for so many reasons.
The age difference wasn’t the issue, he was
He was there watching at the end because the "real inspiration" of the character will always watch Taylor's success because of what he did, from the shadows, and all he has is the "scarf".
Other swifties think that the song the Manuscript is referring to the book in the video at the end, like as if she has reflected on her life and now the memior is for fans to read
I didn't realize you hadn't reacted to the short film until now. i just knew yours would be an emotionally intelligent reaction and that's exactly what you delivered. There are many moments that are painful to watch, and of course that's by design.
You caught onto the gaslighting so quickly in the kitchen scene. If you rewatch it, you'll notice there are moments where Sadie is on the far left of the screen and Dylan is on the far right, and in the center, between them in the background is a fluorescent light above a gas stove. Also, when you paused to comment on crossword puzzles, I realized that is another symbolic reference I hadn't noticed before. "Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there's no right answer" (lyrics from Red).
Yes, please do react to the behind the scenes footage. It's only about 6 minutes, but it gives insight into some of Taylor's creative process and intent for certain scenes, as well as a glimpse at her approach as a director.
Oh wow, I didn't notice that at all with the light above the gas stove!
Thank you for watching 😁
Dylan O’Brien!!! His first role was as Stiles in Teen Wolf (and for a first time role, his acting was INCREDIBLE in that show)! The other thing he’s most known for are the Maze Runner movies. Also worth mentioning that the fight scene in this short film was completely improvised.
Not true. Taylor said it was scripted but they improvised some of it. So not completely improvised. She said "I can't take full credit for that" at the Graham Norton Show.
METAL HEADS FOR TAY TAY !!! I am a Metal Head here too bro Sabaton, Arch Enemy, Nightwish Epica, I admire Taylor Swift for her hard work and writing her own songs,
Behind the scenes is great.
Taylor played in CSI a few years ago. She has also been in a couple of movies. Great reaction.
Thank you for watching!
No u like him. Demon possession is real and they've tried to keep us from our soulmates so we don't reproduce. They made clones of us. Used all our strengths and weknesses
They didn't think id catch them and get my erased memory back
One of my favorite episodes of CSI!
Also, she had a song from the CSI episode. It was incredible
You seem to have been touched by this video. You're not alone in that. If you have even half a heart, this song and video will break it further. Hope to see you doing more Taylor videos. And, the live performances are very impressive as well.
The whole short film was a great example of why that age gap (she was 20, he was 29) just doesn't work. He was plenty old enough to know better, and I believe he downplayed their romance in front of his friends because they were also 29/30 and probably thought it was a little weird or even inappropriate.
also, just a note he is 42 now and dating a 26 year old now. not necessarily inappropriate now, but it does feel like a pattern for him.
I didn’t necessarily think badly of Jake until I read the "Me and the Movie Star" essay. My god. Like John Mayer, it wasn't just the age gap and power imbalance - it was the fact that both men seem to get off on manipulating young women - and then turn round and blame the women for not being "mature" enough to handle it. Fun fact: 45 year old John Mayer is now dating a 22 year old, while Jake started dating his gf when he was nearly 40 and she was 22. Sigh.
@@notyourmanicpixie the age difference wasn’t the problem, he was.
I've seen this film many times. The scene with his friends and the fight scene after always hit very personal for me. I've had experience with a narcissist who loved to use gas lighting, so watching the fight scene definitely brought up some stuff. The detail of her wanting to hold his hand for comfort also hit really hard. My love language is touch, not to the point of PDA, but just those small little touches of affection that let you know they care. My husband's is not. It's been a hard thing in our relationship for both of us to understand about each other. Taylor is great at bringing out my emotions that I tend to bury and that definitely had me bawling.
Great reaction - note the gas stove with the big light over it between them in the kitchen argument scene. And it was shot on 35 mm - and I believe in 1.33 aspect ratio - to give it a more nostalgic feel. Just a beautifully acted, directed and shot short film. If you watch the bts vid you’ll see what a specific vision Taylor had for this. It actually feels like a natural extension of her storytelling as a songwriter. I’m psyched for her to eventually direct a feature length film.
a really good storytelling here. I watched this short film once before and it was just too... close in a way as I had such age gap story in my 20th which ended on Christmas night. there also was a scarf I made for that person as a birthday present. so yes, a really close one and a really good song. thanks for your reaction, as always
Brian, that was freaking outstanding❣️❣️❣️
Thank you so much!
However, I would love for your “better half” Swiftie wife to join in!
I am subscribed and I see that you did reactions to more of TAS so I got my work cut out for me!
Thank you! I love seeing men swifties because like I said, it takes guts, and I love seeing men comfortable to show their emotions. Apparently, Someone gave you a well-rounded upbringing❣️🌞
Thank you for subscribing!
Yea she's sadie sink from strangers things I love this song and great video.
I do like Taylor Swift, but I originally watched this because of Dylan O’Brien, the guy in the video. I love Sadie from Stranger Things, too. They both did a fantastic job.
I’ve missed your Taylor reactions! Great job as always. Watch the making of. It’s short but great insight into Taylor s a director. 😊
5:50 He's Dylan O'brien :) he was in teen wolf, maze runner and more
35mm film-that’s why it looks so beautiful.
I'm not a swifty but I can appreciate this short film and the song. Now I'm intrigued.
Was laughing at your second hand embarrassment in this reaction.
I appreciate you watching this even though you aren't a Swiftie!
Yes, please do the behind the scenes! It is really great.
yes she shot it on film because she wanted that authentic look you only get on film
I know she was in the movies "Valentines Day" and "Hannah Montana the movie" and I think a episode of CSI. Great actress in my opinion.
Dylan was in Mazerunner and the series Teen Wolf.
Everytime I watch All Too Well I comment about how comitted TK is to the hand holding. That man might drop the occasional pass but he don't ever drop her hand.
The guy in the video was the lead actor in the "Maze Runner" trilogy.
I've never seen it unfortunately 😕
They represent grace and Steve, but the song is really about Tony and I
Missed this one so came back to watch it. It was interesting. So sad but so well done and I love that Taylor directed it. ❤
I hate confrontation so much that their fake argument makes me uncomfortable 🫣
Taylor said if she didn't do this she film... she wouldn't have made the film.
The dialog in the kitchen was adlib...
He was in Maze Runner and the redhead was in stranger things
it just hit me a lot of these olders guy who date much younger women religiously never seem to have any intention of committing it's like always just a fun fling for them, so if he actually flat out told her if they were closer in age maybe things would've been different why even bother leading her on?? why bothering getting into a relationship with someone so much younger, and the fact he continues to do this along with many other men
Dylan is from Maze runner trilogy, teen wolf tv series
I've not seen any of those shows or movies, so that's why I didn't know him.
The Nightwish Army will have your back bro.
Thank you!
Thank you for seeing what I see.
Taylor let them ad lib the fight scene.
dylan o’brien love of my life.
Oh The Evil Jake Gyllenhaal of it all ! Thats Who! He was 31 Taylor was 20
Yeah, definitely react to the bts, it's really great to see the work, we all only wish it was longer
Most believe they were only together 3 months, but it's been mentioned they got back together then broke up multiple times, over 8+ months. In this 10 minute version of, All Too Well, Taylor did for her Swifties, it now includes her 21st birthday lyrics. She was dating Jake G, when she turned 21. But, as this is 13 years later, everyone already knew it was about Jake G. ❤ You should do a reaction to Taylor's ROCK version of "We are Never Getting Back Together" from her 1989 Tour, as it's obvious to many, it's about Jake. Here is a link; ruclips.net/video/5c1F8FzPfz8/видео.htmlsi=CfoUDPZl0pFgStZh
I’ve seen them somewhere
Me: yes! Sady Sink, and Dylan O’Brien 5:48 (O_O)
Though🤔 wouldn't his flipping friends know who she was, one of the biggest pop stars at the time? They'd be talking to her as well.
Late but I don't think Dylan O''Brien was the right casting choice because he looks younger than his age, and he was literally every girl's teenage crush.
So instead of seeing the uncomfortable age gap, people see a conventionally attractive man that they had a crush on in a relationship with another conventionally attractive woman and forget their ages.
I think Dylan was a great choice. He looks a lot like Jake G did at that time. Dylan doesn’t have that desperate need to be considered “hip, cool” and a serious actor who was “too sophisticated” for Taylor but he did a great job acting the part of the petulant man child that still is Jake G. I enjoy knowing that on Folklore & Evermore (and other projects) many of his idols he considered “cool” while dismissing her work were eager and happy to collaborate with her on her art. She’s cooler and more of an artist than he will ever be because with he it’s real. He’s a good actor who will never be satisfied with anything. Sad for him, glad for her that she got through it young and used her pain to create art.
In an interview she said she knew that she wanted these two actors, and she had no Plan B for other actors.
I always thought the song was just about a bad relationship (albeit from from Taylor's perspective), until I read the essay "Me and the Movie Star" (google it), which talks about a young intern's experience with Jake G when he was in his mid-30s. Apparently he is well known for gaslighting and messing with very young, vulnerable women - to the extent that his PR people have to keep covering up for him. What an a-hole!
I had red hair in 9th grade
That was literally me I wore my hair like that and wore a black shirt as part of skit for a high school
Oh & someone did tell you it was about Jake G. right? About a year after John...f'd up!
Were you and your wife able to get tickets to the Eras tour?
My cousin got tickets, she did get one for my wife, I'm sure they will have a blast. I'm staying home with my kids, it will be a great time for us too!
It’s Dylan O’Brien dude 2:40 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Is this about John Mayer? This little film resonated with me, this guy was actually abusive in the film. Guys, don’t be like this guy in the film! Be sweet!
No, it's about Jake Gyllenhaal
This is about her relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal, him and John are probably the ones that cause the most damage to her mentally. It's great that you are able to resonate with her song but at the same time, I'm so sorry that you resonate with All too well. The gaslighting that the film and the song portrayed is just insane
If i interpreted right from her songs the biggest difference between her relationships with john and Jake, is that it seems like it was still genuine from Jakes side he was just unconciously being abusive. While john is just using people for sex and song inspiration
You and your sister can come to the wedding
finally taylor swift🤍 please more. you can check out her live performances
I will do that, thank you for watching!
@@DestructiveMediaYT thanks
Her acoustic guitar and piano performances are the best...
Thank you for doing these. My husband is also a Swiftie-by-marriage, and finally seeking an eduTaytion. He can’t relate to a lot of reactor videos, but sees himself in yours. It’s been heartwarming to watch. Thank you for appreciating not just the prose, but the entire short film.
Have you seen her performance of this at SNL? 🧣
I have not seen the SNL performance, but I will have to check it out!
Thank you for watching my reactions, and for showing your husband my videos as well!
I am scared!!!
I did not EVEN listen to your reaction as of yet!
This is a MAJOR song and video for me and sooooooooooo many other Swifties that if I hear any comment that belittles it, I will clean all traces of you from my feed better than Este’s friend cleaned up the scene!!!😉
So sorry. This cannot be helped. If one doesn’t get, “All too well”, then I have no hope of enjoying any reaction to The Queen, like…Ever!
Ok let’s do this!
