"The way things look and the way things are are very different," Jeff Bridges, who plays The Giver, says to Brenton Thwaites, who's been chosen to be his society's Receiver of Memories. Bridges is later shown sharing those memories with Thwaites
Releasing a film adaptation of The Giver in 2014 was always going to be tricky. Why? Because Lois Lowry's kid-lit classic, first published in 1993, helped to invent the tropes of dystopian young adult fiction.
Since 1993, "The Giver" has been one of the rare books kids get as a school reading assignment and fall in love with anyway. Now, the classic novel about a young boy chosen to be his society's Receiver of Memories is a buzzed-about feature film
The first trailer for The Giver was released on March 19 and though it only shows Taylor for, like, half a second, we definitely got an idea of what to expect in the film! You can see her around the 0:44 mark.
Wondering where Taylor Swift was in 'The Giver' trailer? She's there!! Just look harder & not blink!
