With the film’s shorter runtime, the biggest question on fans’ minds is: which songs didn’t make the cut? When compared to the Los Angeles setlist, the ones that don’t seem to be included in the film are: “No Body, No Crime” with Haim, “Long Live,” “Wildest Dreams,” The Archer” and “Cardigan.”
Since the movie was filmed during the L.A. shows, other songs from the tour that don’t appear include “‘Tis the Damn Season,” “Nothing New” with Phoebe Bridgers and “Invisible String.” Additionally, the “Seven” interlude was scrapped.

Many fans have noted that the transitions between Swift’s eras have also been shortened. In particular, it appears that the pianist intro for “Tolerate It” has been cut and the big intro to theRedera has been condensed.
That being said, other notable transitional moments still appear in the film, including the bewitching moment before “Willow” and Swift’s snake entrance beforeReputation.
