Star-Crossed: The Film

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.

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.

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.
