The music video for Don’t You Dare starts off with a shot of an old manor and pans to the interior of the home, which is full of antiques and has that Victorian feel. With stunning ceilings, decor, and overall aesthetically pleasing furniture - the house that this video is set in is fun to explore through the various scenes. With the help of the song’s melody, this video really pulls you in. When the scenes aren’t in the house, we see some watery light glares, as if the light was bouncing off water or crystals, and a few shots of Boyhood herself being slightly illuminated in the dark. All in all, this video is alluring and you’re going to want to watch the full thing.
