The shot of Taylor and post laying on the paper silhouette also reminds me of eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, where Joel and clementine are laying like that on the ice rink . The movie is about having your memories erased to forget a lover as well, so it makes sense to have a nod toward.

I had a different interpretation. Initially I thought it was about a lover and Post Malone was acting as the lover, but then thought that both Taylor and Post Malone were mourning their lost loves. Taylor sees herself in Malone and he in Taylor bc they’re both tortured poets. In the scene where Taylor was getting shock therapy by the dr, I saw this as all the men in her life who hurt her and Taylor part taking in self destructive behaviors, and Post Malone stepped in as a friend to help stop the self destructive behaviors. Then Malone is in the phone booth speaking with his ex love desperately reach out to her, while Taylor is mourning her own lost love. When Malone leaves the booth he and swift reach out in a manner of comfort and sympathy.

I wonder if the scenes, where she has his tattoos on her face and he has them removed means that they became each other in a way. But because those versions simply weren’t who they actually are, it didn’t work out. I think this is being reflected by the blue and orange flame/veil in the beginning. They tried to merge but it just didn’t work, because I think merging would have meant one of them had to stop being themselves. I hope it makes sense!

For me the colours from the typewriters symbolise Joe's seemingly chronic depression (she sings about it a lot) in blue, and Taylor's light and love in orange (callback to Daylight, Invisible String etc). Their colours tried to mix but eventually couldn't.

That's a good take. Also, blue and orange are opposite each other on the color wheel and are said to be complementary colors, but in the print industry, we avoid putting blue and orange together (like blue print on an orange background, and vice versa) because they are said to annoyingly "vibrate."

Taylor laid on the bed in the asylum, looking like she was about to die. Then she took the forget him pill, the handcuffs that bounded her were released. Symbolizes that she just ended a relationship and tried to forget him, which helped her got rid of the bondage. When she looked in the mirror and washed her face, Post's tattoos were revealed. Symbolizes that this was her true soul. Wearing mourning clothes, she came to the typing department and the tattoo on Post's face was the same as the one hidden on her own face. Symbolizes that while she was mourning the death of her previous relationship, she met a soul exactly like her own, and that he did not hide his true nature at all. The two of them sat across from each other and typed. Two lights of different colours floated out from the typewriters and merged together. Represents that two people connected and exchanging affection with each other through writing (or writing songs) and it created sparks between them. In the highway scene, the two of them were lying on a large pile of manuscript papers, which was shaped like the silhouette of the typing Tay who was typing. It means this was a situation imagined by the poet Tay while typing. Post had no tattoos, and the two smiled at each other and then it turned into worried expressions. It means that the two love each other like normal people. But when she noticed that he had no tattoos on his face, she realized that this was not the real him but just her imagination. So all the manuscript papers scattered around just like the shatter of her imagination. She was studied by a group of scientists, but their treatment of her was torture. Post saved her by cutting off her pain. Symbolizes that everyone thought she was crazy when she fell in love with this man and tried to fix her in a way that tormented her. But he was the only one who understood her. Post found a phone booth in a deserted mountain and called her. He didn't notice that she had been sitting on the phone booth in the rain waiting for him. Symbolizes that the person he had been looking for everywhere had actually been by his side all along despite of all the public opinion. I tend to think that the prototype of the male protagonist is Matty rather than anyone else. He himself has tattoos, a style that reveals his true nature, and loves typewriters etc. Maybe Taylor was so fascinated by him being uninhibited and unrestrained that she admired.

Regarding the black dog, it is often used as a metaphor for depression, a battle that Robin Williams, who starred in “The Dead Poet’s Society,” bravely faced. The use of this symbol in the music video could be interpreted as a tribute to Williams and a commentary on the struggles associated with mental health.

Taylor took the "move on drug" to move on from Joe. That "move on drug" made her see Matty. Seeing her face with tattoos in the mirror similar to Post (that I assume was Matty). They bonded over music, maybe writing songs together, or maybe making plans for their relationship. Those colors that came out from the typewriters are those plans, like maybe planning a bright future together. Then we saw them lying in her silhouette like saying this was what she want, this is what she/they have in mind. But I also think it was not just about Matty, it was for every guy she's been with and also to her future lover (because he don't have his tattoos). She just wants to be happy, the two of them to be happy together. The scene when they are looking at each other and Taylor was looking confused, like she's questioning if all of this was true, if it can be true (I'm not sure on this one), but she still wants to hold his hand. The examination room.. and people are checking on her, torturing her (which was one way of healing the crazies in the old time) are the people who questioned her with her relationship with him. Like them saying she was crazy for choosing him. When she got electrocuted, he realized she was in pain and he also read the words "i love you it's ruining my life" so he saved her by cutting her off (cutting the electricity). Taylor mentioned in one of the songs that he ghosted her, so yeah. The telephone scene, maybe he tried calling her again, wanting her back but she's already moving on, sober maybe. That's all. There was definitely references to other songs from the album but I solely focus on what story she wanna tell us on this one.

For some TTPD promo before the album came out, she had a wall of filing cabinets. Apparently there were 72 filing cabinets (72 months = 6 years = length of her relationship with Joe) and 6 of them were open (again 6 year relationship). Not sure if this is the same as the scene with the burning files because I'm too lazy to count but I bet theres a connection there

Post Malone not having his tattoos (when they were happy and together) is like her way to show that she can fix him in reference of the song "I can Fix Him (No Really I Can)". However, as the video continues, specifically the shock therepy scene, it shows the he still have his tattoos. It depicts the last line of the said song "Woah, maybe I can't"... I'm not sure if he have the tattoos in the phone booth scene tho where I think she doesn't want him anymore.

The pills she takes are labeled “Forget Him”. The bottle has her birthday and this album release date on the prescription bottle as the Rx number. There’s a line in one of her best songs (IMO) “Peace” that says “But I'm a red fire, and I'll keep your brittle blue heart warm. If your cascade ocean wave blues come.” I believe that may be the red and blue smoke/haze coming off of each other when they’re at the typewriters sitting across from each other. She’s the red and he’s the blue. She couldn’t give him the Peace that he demanded from her. The paper cyclone around them in the street were pages out of “The Story of Us” book that she was reading while they were laying together on the paper profile of Taylor from “Style”. It not only came undone in the end, but their story was lit on fire and was finally and truly declared dead. When Taylor runs to Post on the street, they recreated the time when she ran into his arms at the awards ceremony in real life. The reference about Florida is that she and Matty broke up right before she went to her Florida shows on her current Era’s tour. You can actually see her crying in some videos from those dates. It’s awful to see Taylor so sad. She plays her instruments and sings very differently than when she’s happy. She thought she was going crazy. To help with an arch for this double album, she chose Clara Bow to a few of these songs. Ethan Hawk and Josh Charles, both are actors from “The Dead Poets Society (came out in 1989/also her birth year)” are her two doctors, along with Post Malone, who were doing research on her but he ends up stopping the abusive cycle. The lines on the EKG they showed for a split second were actually the lyrics for this song. She doesn’t miss any details. Everything in the video has a purpose to her; it’s up to us to figure out what she wants to convey. Lyrical genius vs NOT. LOL. She was also wearing a black Victorian Mourning Dress in parts of the video as yet another tribute to Clara Bow. There’s a song on the album called “The Black Dog”. It’s also one of the names of the 4 different variants of this album. I believe she saw her guy with someone else at a bar that was called “The Black Dog”. So, it’s a shoutout to another song. Thank you so much for your great reaction. You got most of these. I just copied what I had saved cuz I’m very lazy and I have been trying to figure this album out. Lol. They look and sound great together! 👏🏻🫶🏼🥰

The very last scene with the bracket is very Travis coded. He tried reaching out with the friendship bracelet but she didn’t answer right away because she was getting over this situation. His jacket looks like the one Travis wore in Dec and her dress looks like NYE dress. Plus the bracelet looks like one he wears. It zooms in to her reaching out and he comes out to stand in the rain with her which could reference peace “the rain will come if you stand here with me” and it he willing to do it. 15:14

The Black Dog is also the same type of black dog that was in her "Blank Space" music video. Might be a big stretch , but right when the dogs was showing she said "It's going to be forever or go down in flames" and a little more after that. Then in the new music video she said "I loved you its runing my life, I touched you". Not sure if she just like that type of dog, but they're all the same.

Taylor has posted: Fortnight music video, I wanted to show you the worlds I saw in my head that served as the backdrop for making this music. Pretty much everything in it is a metaphor or a reference to one corner of the album or another. For me, this video turned out to be the perfect visual representation of this record and the stories I tell in it”. - The All White psychiatric ward - tortured with being the perfect TS & being with / breaking up with Joe Alwyn & seeking out Matty Healy. She is handcuffed, driven up the wall wearing her “wedding dress”(That Taylor wore to the 2024 Grammys - where she announced the TTPD album). Taylor removing her “mask” to see the real side of her that has been hidden. A rebel side underneath, hidden relationships, depression - even while touring at The Eras Tour. The medication “Forget Him” delivered upside down but the numbers represent her birth date & the TTPD album launch date. (TS quote from The Eras Tour Melbourne Show 16 Feb 2024. "This album, this new one, 'Tortured Poets,' is an album that I think more than any of my albums that I've ever made- I needed to make it," "It was really a lifeline for me, just the things I was going through, the things I was writing about," "It kind of reminded me of why songwriting is something that like actually gets me through my life." "I've never had an album where I needed songwriting more than I needed it on 'Tortured Poets”. - Then the transition in to The TTPD Typing Room Taylor is wearing her black “mourning dress”. Post Malone (aka Matty Healy) is typing “I love you it’s ruining my life” repeatedly. Taylor is missing “1” key on her typewriter could be a nod to her 'Folklore' tune 'The 1' - now it’s not there anymore. The colored energy touching between Taylor & Post / Matty could be a nod to her lyrics from “Illicit Affairs” in which she sings about her past lover “ showing me colors I can’t see with anyone else”. Then back in the Psychiatric ward, the EEG test results are the lyrics again “I love you, it’s ruining my life” is Post / Matty seeing she still loves him so he “pulls the plug” to save her. 👏👏👏😱😱😱🤯🤯🤯

The two of them sat across from each other and typed. Two lights of different colors floated out from the typewriters and merged together. Represents that two people connected and exchanging affection with each other through writing (or writing songs) and it created sparks between them.------- The colors of the souls emerging is the Twin Flame symbol and colors. I think she is referring to Joe Ayn as her twin flame because Taylor is a Fire sign and Joe is Water Sign. Opposites Yin Yang Twin Flame tormenting because of the clash of the twin flames.

The miracle move on drug is her rebound. And she’s typing on Matty’s typewriter about how she’s feeling about Joe….consistent with how this drug is not working, ie rebound not helping her get over Joe.

Okay 2 hopefully helpful points /philosophies for ya - 1. I believe yes, the type writer is related to the song The One and you made her point - the number 1 never existed, just like how he doesn’t exist in her life now and it never would have changed a thing had he not been in her life before (she would still be where she is no matter) 2. Then at the end when Malone is missing tats and she instead has them, that’s her way of saying…”even if you weren’t The One and you don’t exist in my life today, I’m glad your scars/tats live beneath my skin but no longer are seen in the road of life I see ahead of me”

This is so much similar to Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Minds. They move back and forth in time, with the same partner, different tattoos, she removes him from his memory, she forgets him that's why the blank stare when she is in black, but Post Malone remembers her. Then they intertwine again with the colors. But she goes back to get the procedure, but this time Post Malone interferes, thus the line you touched me and it's ruining my life

‘Tattoo kiss’ taking on Posty/Matty’s tattoos? Posty squinting an eye like Matty, ‘comment on my sweater’ = cardigan 🧶. Weather and sweater are in a 1975 song. Doing experiments 🔬 on her like ‘Down Bad’. 8 spotlights when she’s electrocuted = folklore, on which all songs are lowercase except My Tears Ricochet, The Black Dog is just watching it happen. 7 cabinets = Lover? The phone booth has Posty in a rectangle like Matty in 1975 logo…and like reputation glass boxes on Eras Tour and taking her out of her box? And ghosting since the line is ‘calling ya, and you won’t pick up’…is she the Albatross perched on the phone booth? So gorgeous 🤍

Minds meet magically through her music . Songs ...so strong ....just a moment of memories ....in our hearts they live on.

Vintage typewriters often don't have a 1 key and/or key 0, cause lower case L was used as 1 and upper-case O was used for the 0. 0 Key was introduced before 1 key did, that's also why there are vintage typewriters with it. Don't having these keys there allowed manufacturers to have save more space in the hammers area simplifing the layout and cut manufacturing / maintenance costs

Did you hear the theory about this video being a not to The Wizard of Oz/Return of Oz? Forgive me as I’m not a Swiftie but really starting to get into this stuff, but the creator that made a video pointed out that TS has made nods to Oz before in videos. In Return, Dorothy is sent to a mental institution where she undergoes shock therapy, and like in the original, she starts to see the real people as characters in a fantasy. Look up Nurse Wilson, and you’ll see an identical dress to the black one Taylor wears in the office scene. And then of course the headgear she’s wearing in the shock therapy scene makes her look a lot like Glinda the Good Witch. Post is one of the doctors, and he saves her when the machine starts to falter. So! Is this actually who he plays- just a doctor she knew for a fortnight? Did she imagine their entire relationship and is grieving the loss of this doctor she idolized? IMO, yes. Two weeks is a pretty normal amount of time to be sent away to an institution (though that could range from days to years). Anyway, they could also be friendly neighbors, and still have encountered each other in the psych ward. Really interesting stuff! I’ve been a fan of Post’s music for about a decade now, but this video made me fall in love with him.

In out of the woods, she sings «the rest of the world were black and white, we were in screaming color» When that color emits from their type writers, they’re also now in black and white, but the color is pastel🤔 Correlation?

SHES ON THE TWINFLAME JOURNEY guys! And her album “clean” is the reference to her breaking the mirror and free from the illusion ❤💙 the red and blue coming out of the typewriter! The black and white resembling the duality of the journey like yin and yang. The poetry book of “us” resembles there journey. The mirroring “references” of the tattoo. Once you meet your twinflame, you never wash them off…. You can never escape them. OH MY GOD. I am a poet and I’m the twinflame journey, how my heart hurts for her. It must be so hard for her to perform all these songs about her twin and not get off that stage feeling defeated by destiny. I hope she makes it to Union. She’s not crazy….. she deserves Union more than the rest of us, and our tiny battles .

i get what you say and it also came to my mind that in Down bad she said "like i lost my twin" however she clearly states in a lot of songs and the epilogue of the ttpd album that this relationship with Matty Healy, her twin flame was in fact toxic and self destructive, so not healthy for her and now she is happy and a healthy relationship with another man for 10 months, Travis, so good for her!! In conclusion, it's okay to not end up with your twin flame.. there is in fact life and happiness after the end of relationship with her twin flame matty!

This might not be intentional, but the scene where they are inside a tornado mirrors Francisco and Paolo from Dante’s inferno. They are two lovers forced to spin for eternity in their own illicit passions, always loving but never touching. That might be part of the reason for the touch in the storm at the end. The touch also harkens back to the electricity in the experiment performed on her to kill her, but now we see the inversion as she sits on the phone booth acting like a lightening rod, so we now have the touch of life (like the Sistine Chapel, but also a mythical archetype across cultures) Also, dogs traditionally symbolise faithfulness, so the black dog is infidelity, which of course with the timing foreshadows that her lover is also a scientist.

I may be grasping at straws but to me this video is her being trapped in her mind with the memories of the relationship. As we journey with her through these memories, it recaps moments of the relationship. He always seems to be there reaching for her trying to save her from situations. But in the end she has to break free and burn him from her mind so that she can move on.
