BTW, the fact that everyone, including Sam Claflin, act like Lindsey Buckingham was terrified of Stevie Nicks in the Silver Springs performance is exactly why we will never get a decent Buckingham Nicks/Fleetwood Mac biopic since everyone blatantly misunderstands their dynamic and relationship lol.

To just ignore the history, passion, love, lust, anger, yearning for "lololol he's scared of her #herpower" is utterly ridiculous and rather insulting of their 50 year history. Like, they went back and forth on and off for FIFTY YEARS, why are y'all dumbing it down like that??

I never understood that. He’s literally staring straight into her eyes! He ain’t scared. He’s playing chicken with her.

That eye contact was like intimidating, hot and like we're intruding in something all at once! He's singing her own lyrics "I'll follow you down 'til the sound of my voice will haunt you" AT her, it's a total dance/chase and that's what's enthralling about it, not that he's ~scared of her, ffs

He literally nods at her in encouragement like "give it to me" lmao, that is their dynamic!

Let's not forget that he was abusive as hell. Choked her out in front of the whole band and was probably doing worse in private.

Tbh that's been the first clip to really capture the vibe of the Stevie/Lindsey messiness 🤷🏽‍♀️ it should not have taken seven episodes to reach that point
