The release of the AMC theaters was announced just two weeks ago and has barely had any traditional promotion. At 89 minutes, the film is a companion of Swift’s 12th studio album, combining music videos, cleaning footage behind the scenes and lyrical footage in one package. It played in all 540 AMC theaters in the US over the weekend, and was also shown in Mexico, Canada and Europe. “For Taylor Swift to utilize the power of the movie theater to build her brand, to create excitement among her fans, and create a common experience outside her tour, outside her direct performances, is really a blow of genius,” said Comscore senior media analyst Paul Derebedian. According to the Detroit News, this is another milestone in Swift’s trait of box office dominance, which opened to $ 96 million almost two years after her The Eras Tour concert film.
