    This is actually a project I've undertaken, listening to every song and noting practically every noun/pronoun into categories, lol. I think it's so cool that she's come to form this identity through her interests.

    The only thing disturbing is people on Tumblr captioning gifs and edits of a rape scene with Lana's questionable lyrics.

    I think the video was supposed to be taken as like a video of a slasher/horror-flick, like a very short film. If you notice, her shirt says "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" which I think points that out.

    No shade, was I the only one who thought the argument, even as a joke, was quite compelling?

    It's probably just a behind the scenes sneak peak/personal recording, and not actually part of the video. (Hopefully..)

    was anyone else reminded of the veil parts in the yayo vid?

    I know it's been said a thousand times already but I'll say it again... This video is a disappointment at it's finest. Ultraviolence isn't a bad song and she could have done so much more with the video. Although I'm a little biased because I always prefer high production videos over low quality, this video isn't even a good homemade one. Here what I don't like about it: 1) There's literally one scene. One. One outfit, one filter, one location. It's singular and predictable, and in turn, boring as hell. 2) The filter isn't even pretty! I know Lana loves her muted greens, but the whole yellow tone theme is ugly. I thought with Ultraviolence, she'd go with darker, cooler colors like blues, purples, grays... not this pee-colored mess of a color palette. If there would have been a little more of that purple tone seen as she first walks into the church and the lighting changes, maybe it would have been better. 3) There's no story line whatsoever. You can go on with your theories about lost love and marriage and death but in all honesty, I think Lana just wanted to put on a wedding dress, pout, and play with filters. I think it's all about what's aesthetically pleasing to Lana, but even then, I wasn't expecting something so flat. Lana's has such an interesting mind and has spoken before about how she's in really into film so I was expecting something much more advanced in terms of plot and themes. 4) The video doesn't suit the song, at least in my opinion. I know not everything has to be literal but she could have at least saved the wedding dress for something like a Yayo/Gun & Roses (although we all know that's never going to happen.) The only part that was the least bit literal was when he put her hand around her neck in a choking fashion, it was only a glimpse of the "violence love" portrayed in the song. 
     
    On a less critical, more positive note, there were some things I did enjoy about the video! 1) The lips are back. I know they look a little awkward in some scenes (see: orange) but overall I love when her lips are plumped up like that. Her makeup looked good in this video, now if only I could actually see it through all those filters... 2) She, in general, looked beautiful. I think it's hard to deny that aspect. Lana's facial expression, for the most part, were convincing and beautiful. 3) Some of the angles were good. In particular I really liked the scene under the wedding veil with the light coming through the lace on to her face. If there were more scenes with interesting angles, the video would have been less boring. 
     
    I'm hoping this is just a project Lana wanted to do with Francesco in Italy and that there's another Ultraviolence video directed by Nabil laying around somewhere. One with the smokey black and white rock n' roll theme. Praying for that.

    "My life, it comprises, of losses and wins and fails and falls." - Money, Power, Glory
     
    could be influenced by "I am a series of small victories and large defeats," from Bukowski's The People Look Like Flowers At Last.
     
    I immediately thought of the poem when I heard her sing the line.
  24. CherryGalore liked a post in a topic by bloodstriped in Lana has an interesting past, makes her so good at what she does.   
    I love the life that she has created for herself..
  25. Wilde_child liked a post in a topic by bloodstriped in Ultraviolence in light of Lana's Breakup   
    Listening through Ultraviolence, aside from the "I'll love you forever" tracks, songs like "Is This Happiness", "Flipside", "Cruel World", "Pretty When You Cry", etc. I fucking love. Not that I revel in her relationship deteriorating, but personally, I feel they're more relatable. And yeah, I think they're about Barrie.
     
    Feels fresh finally seeing Lana with a different attitude towards a failing relationship.
