Taylor Swift would be down to write and direct her own film
Taylor Swift sat down to talk about her All Too Well short film at the Tribeca Film Festival, and to the surprise of no one, she came prepared. The pop star pulled out her movie buff bonafides, quoting John Cassavetes (“‘I’ve never seen an exploding helicopter. I’ve never seen anybody go and blow somebody’s head off.
