The video is filmed in black and white. There are scenes of them preforming and then scenes where they are acting for the story line. The story line is about Beyonce acting as her boyfriend is acting towards her. The video has editing cuts between the two of them acting and preforming. The video opens with Beyonce stood with a white background be hind her saying a few words that relate to love, we know from this that she will be singing a love song. The first couple of seconds she is doing this the other actor that is in the video is also saying a few words. There are a number of straight cuts between them. The video then goes on the show us the story line of the video. The video also has a twist in the story line as she is acting out what her boyfriend actually is doing to her. they video is very moving and the black and white film also adds to this feeling too. Beyonce in this video is represented to be very strong at the begginning of the video by the way she is acting towards her boyfriend. She seems to be the one in control. Until the end when the roles are switched.
