‘Marry the Night’ might've been Lady Gaga’s least successful single, but its 14-minute video was unquestionably one of her most ambitious yet.

The clip revolves around scenes in which a naked Gaga has a nervous breakdown, inspired by her real-life experience after she was dropped by her first record label. During filming, the scene went on for 30 minutes without a cut as Gaga got into character to recreate those painful feelings. She called the sequence “the most honest moment in that video of everything I've ever done.”
