Taylor Swift parla di Sweeter Than Fiction, colonna sonora di One Chance scritto da Laura Boni 24 Ottobre 2013 Dopo il grande successo ottenuto con Safe and Sound per Hunger Games, Taylor Swift è ormai ambitissima dalle casa cinematografiche per creare brani per i propri film; la cantante ha scritto, insieme al chitarrista dei Fun., Jack Antonoff (fidanzato della sua amica Lena Dunham di Girls), il brano Sweeter Than Fiction per il film One Chance. La pellicola racconta la storia di un tranquillo commesso che partecipa a Britain’s Got Talent e diventa un cantante d’opera, ispirata all’esperienza di Paul Potts. “Vedere i problemi e le difficoltà di qualcuno che non ha mai rinunciato a quello che stava inseguendo, mi ha davvero ispirato” ha raccontato Taylor parlando della canzone, “E’ un film bellissimo e voglio condividerlo con più persone possibile“. One Chance, diretto da David Frankel, è un film ispirato alla vita del vincitore della prima edizione di Britain’s Got Talent, Paul Potts; come si vede anche nella clip con Taylor, nella pellicola si vedrà anche Simon Cowell al tavolo dei giudici del talent show inglese.
