Reviews

_Folklore_, the 8th Taylor Swift's album, surprise-released on July 23rd, is a already a critically-acclaimed record and the **longest-running number 1 album** **of the year** (8 weeks). Besides that, her work was most notably praised by her six **2021 GRAMMY** nominations, which proves artists longevity and high relatability during the time of the global pandemic. With this release, Swift took her _songwriting_ and _singing_ skills to the **next level**, by recording a full-length film, which consists of a live performance of **all 17 tracks**, a short talk about the writing process and overall album recording and most importantly, a discussion about every song on the album between Taylor Swift and one of the writers. The live performances truly show the _beautifulness_ of Swift's voice accompanied by a few instruments. The production also reveals the _enigmatic_ process of recording an album **during the pandemic**. What's most fascinating and _absorbing_, is the explanation made by Taylor and either Jack or Aaron (or even all of them), track by track, right before each performance. They show the viewer **the other side** of those _rich_ and _meaningful_ lyrics and also encourages to dive even more _deeply_ into this body of work. In conclusion, this films shows the viewer a new perspective on the album and its **diversity** in lyrics. It also provides a deep insight into the album-making process during the pandemic, which adds a sense of mysteriousness because of its unusuality. Because of that this film deserves its **appraise**.
