Jack and Diane is about falling in love for the first time. What I wanted to do though was to try to show how one girl feels from the inside of her body and how perhaps all of the unspoken words and emotions become manifested into a different animal. I also wanted the audience to feel how she feels or how anyone feels when they fall in love. At first you’re excited and giddy and warm, but there’s also this terror of how vulnerable you’re becoming, these little pangs of fear of getting hurt, fear of not being understood or loved for who you think you are. These are the terrors of love I wanted to explore along with the sing-song side of love. Jack & Diane director Bradley Rust Gray
