"This is a core memory for me. And this tour, let me just preface by saying I've always had fun doing this. I can't believe music is my career, that's crazy to me. I've always loved it."
Speaking about making the film, which was created from footage from three huge nights on her global jaunt, Taylor explained: "I've never had a fraction of the amount of fun I had on the Eras Tour before.
"I have friends in this room, I have my amazing backing vocalists in this room.
"And let me just say my fellow performers on the stage; the dancers, the band, my backing vocalists, they would go out on stage every single night.
"In sickness or in health, in any weather conditions we would face, regardless of what was going on in our lives.
"We pranced on that stage grinning because of what met us and that was you. How much you cared about it. That was absolutely everything.
"So I think you'll see that you absolutely are the main characters in this film because that's what made the tour magical, that's what made it different from anything I've ever done in my life.
"Your attention to detail, your preparation, your passion, your intensity, like you cared so much about these shows, and that made all the difference for us.
