Was the behind the scenes stuff they showed interesting? I think I want to see this film once it's free for me (streaming). I don't listen to Taylor Swift's music, but that work ethic is beyond admirable. She reminds me of Madonna (a notoriously hard working person on tour) in some notable ways (though not really musically).

During the credits, they showed a lot of mistakes, and her sweet and adorable responses to them. She really goes with the flow and doesn’t take herself seriously, which is unusual for someone with such a work ethic. She sees herself, as she said during the concert, as a dorky, lonely millennial covered in cat hair.

I’ll bet the physical release has tons more behind the scenes stuff.

I'm all about the behind the scenes stuff. Her work ethic is off the charts, and I love seeing what goes into huge productions like concerts. I never roadied, but I did play small shows with my bands. Several of my friends traveled seriously with bands, set shows up, etc. It's an interesting world for sure.

Did you know she personally, as in in-person, thanked and gave huge bonuses to every single person who worked on the tour, including the roadies? One of the truck drivers said it was enough for him to buy a house.

Man that is cool! I think I remember you writing about that a while back. It's really great to hear it when stuff like that happens.
