One of the biggest stars on the planet will soon have her own documentary on Netflix. Taylor Swift will be the focus of “Miss Americana.” It will be the second time that Taylor Swift and Netflix have joined forces. The streaming giant also produced a concert film for her a couple of years ago. The new documentary gives fans an inside look at the life of a celebrity who is usually very guarded about her private life. She allowed the Netflix cameras to have access to her life in the studio and at home. It is a film that all of her fans must see.
There had been rumors about a Taylor Swift documentary for a very long time. However, nothing came to fruition until Netflix got involved. They were apparently willing to pay Taylor the money that she needed to get involved in that type of project. No figures about how much money Taylor was paid have been released. However, it must be a very hefty total. It can be argued that there is no bigger star in the music industry right now than Taylor Swift. Therefore, getting the rights to a documentary about her is a very big coup for Netflix. Their previous relationship with Taylor definitely helped during the negotiation process.
Some early reviews of “Miss Americana” have already started to be posted online. They have been favorable for the most part. However, there have been a few critics who have taken the film to task for not showing any negative aspects of Taylor’s life. The film is being called a propaganda piece by some people in the media because it does not really dig deep to find out who Taylor Swift is beneath the superstar persona. The singer is always very conscious about her image. The film does nothing to change that perception of her.
Another odd aspect of the film is the fact that Taylor’s boyfriend only makes a very quick appearance in the film during which he says nothing. Critics have pointed out that Taylor’s significant other should have been featured more prominently in a film about her personal life. However, it would seem that Taylor’s relationship was off limits to the crew of the Netflix film. The bottom line is that fans of Taylor Swift will enjoy what they see in the film. They just should not expect to learn anything new about her.
