Malcolm Todd Recreates ‘The Notebook’ for the Instagram Age in ‘Chest Pains’ Video


Malcolm Todd 'Chest Pains (I Love)' music video recreates 'The Notebook' with references to Gen Z dating, Instagram, and being left on read.

Directed by Aidan Cullen, the clip recreates the romance and drama of the classic film for Gen Z — instead of Noah sending Allie 365 letters, he’s shooting off Instagram DMs every day. “Despite painting himself as this willfully tattered and worn punching bag, Todd demonstrates, more than anything else, a true spirit of resilience,” Rolling Stone wrote in a review of the record. The “Chest Pains (I Love)” video release coincides with the kick-off of Todd’s headlining Wholesome Rockstar Tour, beginning in Dallas and extending through June 18 with a final show in Los Angeles.
