Taylor Swift’s ‘All Too Well’ snubbed
Taylor Swift is out of the Oscars
shortlist for Best Live Action Short Film nomination for her 10-minute short ‘All Too Well’ despite her campaigning efforts. The pop star has
a shot at another category though,
as revealed by the Academy of
Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
on Wednesday, according a report
on the Hindustan Times.
Although Taylor Swift’s All Too Well: The Short Film received a significant amount of attention when it was released alongside Red (Taylor’s Version), she was unable to make the cut for the final 15 slots. The video, which won big at the MTV Video Music Awards for Video of the Year and Best Direction and an American Music Award was inspired by the singer’s relationship with actor Jake Gyllenhaal. The final 15 nominations were determined by the branches from short films and feature animation, directors, producers and writers.
The short film that stars actors Sadie Sink and Dylan O’Brien centers around a romantic relationship
that quickly turns sour and toxic.
It also marked the filmmaking debut for Taylor Swift, who had earlier directed a number of her own music videos including Mine, Lover, The Man, You Need to Calm Down, cardigan, and willow. The singer also held special screenings of her short film at the Toronto International Film Festival
and Tribeca Film Festival.
All Too Well is also nominated for Best Music Video at the Gramys.
