A few days after the release of her fifth studio album, Kacey Musgraves made her MTV Video Music Awards debut...
LAPD officer Lisa Travanti takes matters into her own hands after being betrayed by her fiancé Esteban Ruiz, his friend, and the legal system. With the help of her sister Julia, Lisa gets a chance to get revenge...
Visually beautiful, many colors, impeccable costumes, but it took me a while to understand the meaning of the documentary/clip, they are part of the artist's album that I really don't know, but I was deeply delighted with the lyrics, which speak a lot about the expected behavior for women, marriage , submission, demure, home and the like, and finally sentimental and spiritual healing, all masterfully taught and magnificently lit with vibrant colors...

She is an artist and she could have easily sold out but she didn't. I thought this was visually such a fun ride and artistically beautiful. Kacey is the real deal and it's too bad their isn't really a place for me in today's music landscape.

Kacey is the real thing. She writes amazing songs and has a style and approach all her own. I was mesmerized from beginning to end. And I felt like it told a cohesive story in an extremely artistic way.
I've loved Kacey since the very beginning of her career, but this visual album was a complete misfire, both visually and sonically. Basically it's maybe one or two music videos worth of content stretched into a forty eight minute snooze fest. Nothing about it was particularly interesting or thought provoking. Most of the imagery and symbolism was trite and uninspired. There were a couple of decent songs, but the mastering of said songs was so overly loud that it sounded like it could clip at any moment. Kacey, who I think has a sweet and bell-like voice, came off as an amateur vocalist in a way I didn't expect from her. She seemed very out of her comfort zone. Overall , I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who isn't foaming at the mouth for more content from her.

Kacey wrote this album regarding her divorce taking us on the emotional rollercoaster she went through. The features in this film are wonderful, Victoria Pedretti being my favorite, with excellent characters and scenes. Kacey's looks are marvelous from start to finish and the detail in fashion and scene sets should not be overlooked.
The music is her star-crossed album and is truly a masterpiece. The story she tells and how well written the songs are always blow my mind. Renee Rapp mentions Kacey as one of her music idols and talks of "Camera Roll" being her favorite song. I hold "Good Wife" dear to my heart and the aesthetic portrayed here including her character in this scene is spot on.
Given you find yourself simply ripped out of the love fairytale you thought would last forever, give this film a watch and immerse yourself in Kaceys deep lyrics and the scenes that will make you laugh, cry, upset, longing, and hopefully feeling capable of moving forward.
Thank you for this powerful piece, Kacey!

"The film." Nope. Sorry. It's a collection of music videos VERY loosely connected through VERY short scenes of dialogue. The music videos are pretty good, but let's not pretend this is anything more than a compilation.

It's weird writing this as a super fan of Kacey Musgraves. I adore her. Have seen her thrice, with my favorite show being Nashville. So to say I wasn't blown away by this truly speaks something.
I am a collector of art-house and horror, cult westerns, spaghetti and forgotten films. I see what Miss Kacey was going for here, but as a linear story and visual album, nothing made sense. Nothing. There was no story, no plot except bare threads in between songs linking THEM to one another, not all songs as a whole album. The visuals, the sets, the nods, the makeup, the costumes? 10/10. Kacey and her crew have never looked better. I enjoyed seeing Victoria Pedretti, SIMONE and Princess Nokia, it's just a shame that the segment they were in held now weight because it didn't link to anything. It was a music video, and the starring one of the visual album.
I wanted more, that's what it equals up to. I just wanted more. I wanted epic, I wanted beauty, and if a connection between all segments was going to be attempted, I wanted it to be coherent. This just felt like a very long music video, with recycled elements from the other videos throughout. I still love you Kacey, and adore this album, but the visual album was a miss for me.

Clearly took inspiration from Baz Luhrmann's Romeo & Juliet, and kill bill. They tried way too hard. Laughed at this the whole way through. They put together everything that's "trendy" and very gen z with the dumbest story lines.

The best visual album of the decade was Beyonces Lemonade. Not a biased post bc im not the biggest fan of either artist. I lost interest in star crossed within 10 minutes. Its not funny, the music is bland and 2000s fashion is not cute anymore like seriously.
What can I say? Kacey is a fairly typical contemporary artist making mainstream music I have no idea how to categorise. I don't necessarily like it, but that doesn't make it bad, a lot of people do.
Well, the film is her singing in weird settings with other rather attractive, suggestively clad women wearing odd clothes. I liked the women. Cant say fairer than someone with good taste chose them.
Good for background visuals, or playing on big screens at a party before things get going.
