The wild world of social medias brought me to this freaking awesome music video that reunited "Dead Poets Society" stars Ethan Hawke and
Josh Charles on the year the film celebrates its 35th anniversary, one of my favorite films of all time. So, if anyone wonders what happened
to some of John Keating's students, they became scientists conducting experiments on Taylor Swift, as she tries to deal with repressed memories
and fantasies of a lover (played by Post Malone).
It has nothing to do with the film, as the settings and storyline are very surreal and imaginative, yet the guys reunion compelled me to see it and I simply loved that encounter as it also gives a reference to a new generation in looking back at a classic film.
The bonus I got was hearing something unique, different from everything I hear these days (great lyrics and melody), and seeing the great-looking styles and visuals Swift obtained with her director of photography Rodrigo Prieto ("Killers of the Flower Moon", "Brokeback Mountain") while presenting a twisted world that goes inside her character's head. The digital makeup effect that presents Malone's tattoos on her face, little by little, was certainly one of the most memorable moments ever developed on a music video. It all goes in a very cinematic manner and it's very appealing to film audiences as there's so much going on that invites some reflection on all the elements and feelings presented.
I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the video, the song and everything. 9/10.
