two key additions: paul mescal also starred in the lost daughter, and phoebe bridgers has mentioned that the reason she watched normal people (thus the reason she ended up dating paul mescal) is because phoebe waller-bridge told her to
You missed Emma Stone She's Taylor Swift's friend Starred in the favorite movie with Olivia Coleman and Joe Alwyn who's dating Taylor Swift her friend And she dated Andrew Garfield
also daisy edgar-jones will also star in where the crawdads sing. the next thing i'm about to say is absolutely unhinghed so pay attention (someone pointed it out on twitter): ok so both taylor and phoebe b have worked with jack antonoff on their music but that's not the only connection both have. listen to this, jack is dating the actress margaret qualley who will star in a movie with joe aylwyn called “the stars at noon” and jack produced the soundtrack for the new minions movie which will feature whose song? *YOU GUESSED IT - PHOEBE FUCKING BRIDGERS!!!!1!1*
YES, I started the show thinking Normal People was one the WORST books I had read, but the TV show literally changed my life and now I love both Normal People and Sally Rooney
Same!! Actually one of the only times I think watching the adaptation before reading the book worked in my favour. Even though the show was an extremely faithful adaptation, the actors really added something to the characters. They played them with so much emotion that it was easier to empathize with them than their on-the-page counterparts, lol
Multiverse of Madness?? More like multiverse of sadness! If you love either Taylor Swift, Phoebe Bridgers or Sally Rooney (let alone all of them), please seek therapy, you may be depressed
My favorite lines in this video: - "We have a mouse in our house ... So now is just a roommate" - "Daisy Edgar Jones's suit in the Google bar: constantly. Constantly" - "The plot thickens. The plot thickens." - "it's about somebody who lives in a lagoon,,, I'm assuming from this picture." - "Oh I bet I know what you're thinking, ooohhh I bet I do." - "Jake, if you are mad about your photo, be a better person. (...) Buu, murder, muerder, electric chair, electric chair. [Refering to Jake Gyllenhaal]"
omg carley you HAVE to watch the normal people show. as someone who didn't love the book that much (i liked it but it's not my favorite sally rooney, conversations with friends is) it's honestly BETTER than the book. crazy but it's true. i didn't like connell that much as a character but they improved him so much in the show and so much dialogue is lifted right of the book. the acting and the casting of marriane and connell are PERFECT and they have amazing chemistry. it doesn't even feel like acting sometimes it's THAT good. i'd say emotionally it hits you at fleabag s2 finale level. genuinely hope you watch and review it.
@@uncarley i totally understand that i was too but trust me, a random stranger on the internet, you're gonna LOVE it. i also feel like i should mention that if it weren't for you and your videos i would've never stumbled into sally rooney. so thank you very much for that girlboss.
okay I'm showing my freakishness but I simply must add a few more connections to your multiverse of madness" - Phoebe Bridgers interviewed Daisy Edgar-Jones about her film Fresh - in said interview, Phoebe Bridgers reveals that it was Phoebe Waller-Bridge who told her to watch Normal People - Paul Mescal is also in The Lost Daughter - Phoebe's branding for 'Punisher' is the skeleton costume - which is also made iconic from Donnie Darko, which Jake Gyllenhaal stars in - Olivia Coleman stars in Broadchurch of which Phoebe Waller-Bridge is in the second season
- olivia colman also used her joe alwyn connection to get taylor swift to surprise her broadchurch co-star shaun dooley while he's recording a cover of "never grow up" for a charity album. taylor showed up and phoebe waller-bridge was present in that room because she played ukelele for olivia colman's track
Stumbling across this video at 2:23am feels fitting because this is *exactly* what my pattern of thought would usually look like at 2:23am anyway. It’s a masterpiece Carley 👏
Paul Mescal is also in The Lost Daughter (granted it is a minor part) so the fact that there’s not a piece of tape connecting the two is gonna bother me for eternity 😭
girly i absolutely know and understand the fear of watching adaptations of your favorite books but i must say the normal people show was one of the most exceptional and well adapted things i’ve ever seen. it felt like every single piece of dialogue was taken directly from the book if u love the source material as much as i do (which i KNOW u do) i think the show will be very hard not to like 😌 also i am living for the louie zong in the background
This is so cool! I have some other connections to suggest: - Jemima Kirke plays Melissa in Conversations with Friends - Jemima Kirke is married to Alex Cameron (singer-songwriter) - Alex Cameron is a frequent collaborator/co-writer of The Killers - Phoebe Bridgers did a collaboration with The Killers ("Runaway Horses") ALSO: - Sasha Lane plays Bobbi in Conversations with Friends - Sasha Lane also had a role in the TV series, Loki, which stars Tom Hiddleston - Tom Hiddleston once dated Taylor Swift - Tom Hiddleston starred in The Night Manager with Olivia Colman
Jemima Kirke was also in Girls which stars Lena Dunham who famously dated Jack Antonoff Antonoff produced ton of Taylors Albums and Solar Power which Phoebe had backup vocals on! Antonoff is also in a relationship now with Margaret Qualley who has an upcoming movie with Joe Alwyn
I have been saving the books for the summer or whenever my finals end, the tv shows for after i read the books but this multiverse of artist who i am a huge fan of and am attracted to (every single one) has been on my mind for a really long time now. this video is essential depressed girl viewing
Anxiously awaiting the day that Taylor Jenkins Reid joins the Sally Rooney multiverse. Either one of the blondies will write a song for one of the movie adaptation or their Sally Rooney boyfriends will star in the movies. I feel it in my bones.
harry styles is also in DWD with florence pugh who is in little women with timothee chalamet who is in lady bird with sairsoe ronan who is in atonement with james mcavoy who as we all know is the early 2000’s paul mescal
I just can't agree enough with the OGs who like Reputation were in the Trenches with her, because the amount of backlash we'd get online for simply saying that people didn't had enough evidence to "cancel" Taylor Swift was insane. I remember liking that Album so much that it HURTS when it isn't counted among her best. The tours were all out too (sadly living in a different continent made me incapable of attending)
I feel less crazy right now, thank you so much for this video!! Another connection: Sandra Oh who plays in Killing Eve written by PWB also is in Grey's Anatomy and Taylor Swift named her cat Meredith for the GA's character
the fact that i could think of more connections tho- emma stone was also in the favourite with olivia colman and she dated andrew garfield + tayla swift also wrote bad blood, which has ellen pompeo in it, and she starred in greys anatomy with sandra oh, star of killing eve BOOM are those particularly relevant? for some no. but it just proves that EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED
Love love love this! Im a Sally Rooney, fan Swiftie and a Phoebe Bridgers fan, so this video is heaven. Also, the fact that Olivia Colman is related to Paul and Joe is so ao surreal (Paul debuted in films with The Lost Daughter, where Colman acted and Joe starred in The Favourite alongside Colman )!
In the first chapter of Conversations With Friends, there is a "f*ck the patriarchy" quote and I can’t help but see the connection now😂 loved the vid 🤌🏼🌻
Ok not booktok related but I need a 2024 update with matty Healy, bo Burnham, and boygenius. Maybe even saltburn people with the main characters CWF playing ventia. It’s been the year of Taylor swift and she’s collected so many people like infinity stones
Dear Carley, I would also like to add something so apparently paul mescal is going to starr in an adaptation of Carmen and guess who’s also allegedly in it… JAMIE FUCKING DORNAN who also happens to be Andrew Garfield’s long time friend and roommate and who also stared in 50 shades of grey costarring dakota Johnson who IS ALSO IN THE CAST OF THE LOST DAUGHTER and guess who happens to be Jamie’s and Andrew’s friend Robert Pattinson who starred in twilight which happens to be the main inspiration for 50 shades of grey. This is an expansion to the blondie holy trinity lore and I have so much to add miss Carley. Best regards, A.
I watched the normal people TV series and I loved it💙. I love Paul and Daysi's performances, and thanks to you, I have read normal people twice (this year), and I and currently reading Conversations with friends! So far, loving it💛🧡
Carley i need you to do a sort of "girl, interrupted syndrome", femme rage reading video. Very valley of the dolls, my year of rest and relaxation etc.
Recently joe had a GQ interview about the 10 things he can't live without,, and the book beautiful world where are you was one of them. sis, we've got another connection.
@@uncarley totally fair, i usually feel the same but it was an incredible adaptation of the book!! daisy and paul were perfectly cast and have incredible chemistry. as soon as i finished it i had to start my rewatch right away
I was waiting to see how chaotic it get when connecting tape from Paul Mescal to The Lost Daughter as he's in it but it never happened 😮💨 True chaos hasn't been achieved yet in our lifetime.
You also forgot to include Gil Birmingham as an actor that is in Under the Banner of Heaven. He also plays Taylor Lautner’s dad in Twilight. And Taylor dated Taylor.
this was perfect I literally don’t think a RU-vid video gets more perfect than this ???? and i cant get over that paul mescall was also in the lost daughter with Olivia Coleman the connections never end 😭
carley knew my swiftie self was binge reading conversations with friends (and becoming obsessed with sally rooney in the process) while simultaneously developing an unhealthy attachment to phoebe bridgers’ music and said, i see you, i hear you, here’s a video just for you.
As a Mexican I can’t help but read Paul’s last name as “Mezcal”. I’d like to add the fact that Paul listened to Stranger in the Alps on replay while playing Connell. Don’t quote me on that one, but I think I recall him saying it that one time they (Phoebe and Paul) did an instagram live interview.
This video made me watch and rewatch any and every Phoebe Bridgers music video in one morning (as if I didn't already listen to just her and her side projects every single day for 6 months and to this day), convinced me to become a full time swiftie, made me commit to finally watch Fleabag, and adhere to the Sally Rooney supremacy.. On my way to a better life thanks to Carley
