Taylor Swift just released the official trailer for Miss Americana via her YouTube channel.
Directed by Emmy winning director Lana Wilson, it is a documentary where Swift gets candid, refusing to be muzzled anymore, especially since it was of her own doing. She explains that she became a nice girl because that’s what everyone expected of her, and in doing so, suppressed her own voice and opinions. Over the years, Swift has been overly concerned with the world’s narrative of her, trying to make adjustments in order to be liked.
Swift mentions the year that she disappeared from the public as instrumental to this desire to speak out, as it was a space where she didn’t need to care about what others thought of her, or how she was perceived. It is that feeling of freedom and liberation that Swift brings with her now that she’s back in the public eye again.
In an interview with Variety, Swift discusses how she realised it was time for her to speak out about political and social issues that she is concerned with, to use her platform to advocate for something, instead of just being neutral.
The film will make its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, and will be released on Netflix January 31, 2020.
