“Obviously we want to be on Ally in that scene for 90% of it, but Bradley thought if we could get a live image of her, we could have a two-shot. The screens were inspired by the stages there at Coachella. The idea is to check in with him and the pride he has in her performance. It’s the first time she takes front and center and it marks the intersection of her rise and his slow departure from his stature. ‘Shallow’ was the coming out but this is where Ally takes over.” —Matthew Libatique[x]
I’m falling. And in the good times I find myself longing for change.
