aww de wittle poor bawby is mad..its time for your nap     

bye bitch, nobody cares about your meltdown over HER career. 

The meltdown, lmfao 

lmao BYE

I love this transformation from submissive, needy and masochistic cry baby to revengeful and bloodlust Amazonian that grabs destiny in her own hands and clutches god by the balls. Sooo refreshing in contrast to her usual imagery. I am glad this is not overly produced, ultrapolished, fancy-schmancy grandiose video, because she already had ones, and also that it isn't flippant, sloppy and hermetic jerking off like Ultraviolence (ok, I don't hate that one, I just state that this overshadows Ultra, although it is as much as simple). It is something brand new, crazy hybrid between Tarantino action and Dogme 95/home video/Steve McQueen seventies/Larry Clark/documentary/voyeuristic  shaky camera, and you can feel that this kind of filming is deliberate. And it is masterfully delivered, because your site is really narrowed in suspense and you feel the excitement and vehemence of the action. Even slow parts are thrilling. Speed and poetry in one. And there is an excellent use of color (azure blue of vast ocean and bare, luminant crinoline of the sky), and frame from the balcony seems cosmically wide –that is the greatness of the vid also: the contrast between tight, claustrophobic tubes of villa halls with her rush like mercury through them and magnificent freedom of the big blue nature principles.
 
Although Shades of Cool have very strong visual metaphores, such as Lana in 3D illusion, stabbed by a sword, or gun pointing at her, bullets flying, flowers softly exploding, and magical amalgam of gem-like colors, like ruby, royal blue and mystic violet, this is much more cohesive and that Scarface shooting and explosion in the sky is like her initiation into whole new dimension of existence, personal (spiritual) and artistic. Enough experimental and intimate ("indie" formally, so to say) yet enough cohesive, articulate and charged, or should I say, blessed, with (almost) unexpected, brilliantly depicted culmination and message hidden in it. That climax is like her awakening from the nightmare into pure white bliss. Thousand orgasms from me.
 
And yes, she is so cute, funny, vulnerable and human in that scene of her gown being stuck, and the fact that we see her in different emotional states and in physical movement (running, stumbling) is a breezy shift from her gloomy, elusive, mysterious and impenetrable poutiness of a diva. I adore that expression of healthy rage and determination on her face. So complex, soulful and relatable. She creates a powerful space for catharsis.

Oh geezus I feel like the only one who lowkey fucking loved this video. Infinitely better than the UV video, imo, even with its simplicity. 

I would most definitely consider it one of her best. Iconic even. To each their own though.

first half was kinda boring, but i loved when she started running. the best part was when her robe got caught on the rail lmao 
 

 
followed by the part where she pulled the gun from the guitar case. overall, the weave on my pussy has been 75% snatched 

I'm am dying ahahhaha she shot em down GO AWF

I wonder what the paper being washed away by the water at the very end was all about

Yeah the song wasnt just about a lover, it was more about her relationship with the media after she got famous, shes mad at them now cause she cant do shit without them being there 

Yeah,especially lining up with the idea that she wrote this song during/right after the BTD era. The "never brought into your bullshit when you would pay tribute to me" could be referring to UV's critical acclaim because it was somehow more "authentic" because she was toned down and miserable. Which kind of give me high hopes for Honeymoon Lana to be BTD like high glamour, high production with a side of "call me fake if you want, fuck off"
 
Don't need your money: press, label, endorsement money
 
Everyone can start again, not through love, but through revenge: I'm done trying to please whoever and will actively come at them if the come at me.

Well, the video makes the song make more sense.
Rather than a song about a lover, it's definitely about paparazzi/media/stalkers.
Especially with this video being shot at her house and the helicopter being there while she's running around trying to avoid it and then shooting it down is basically a message of her saying stop following me, leave me alone.
I think the following lyrics show that same message:
"Boy, look at you, looking at me
I know you know how I feel
 
I don't wanna do this anymore
It's so surreal, I can't survive
If this is all that's real
 
All I wanna do is get by by the beach
 
The truth is I never
Bought into your bullshit
When you would pay tribute to me
 
Boy look at you, looking at me
I know you don't understand
 
Don't need your money, money
To get me what I want
Lights camera action
 
Everyone can start again"
 
It's such a beautiful video though, she looks lovely.

This is like Lana's version of welcome to my crib, with a twist at the end

This clip is (for a Lana video at least) pretty funny. Cool colors too!

I YAASSSSed so hard when the first chorus kicks in and she just randomly throws herself on the bed honestly I laughed throughout the whole video is like wtf????? LMAO I love it

I LOVE IT AHHHH       

That gun don't fit in that guitar case!
 
I loved it though. She looks great and glad she's kicking ass this time. It seemed the common throwaway insult/jab last time around was she is always the victim, etc so glad to see she is turning things around.

OH. The song was about MEDIA CRITICISM 

Isn't this her house? Maybe this video is made to tell everyone to stop following/stalking her lol..

I love how she was indulging in it the whole video but at the end she was like "ah fuck it, time to get my backup gun that i hide behind a rock lol" like she planned this

F*** me with a rake .She's so hot. I CAN"T. I think this video is a big "F**k you" to the paparazzi
