I'm not a hater of chuck at all, I agree lana should stop working with her all the damn time but for this specific video I think chuck as a director could've captured something more beautiful and meaningful than this rando director for the video

Period

The beauty of the shots of Lana roller skating down that road make it great to me. It’s so feminine and aesthetically perfect in a way we didn’t have during NFR era.   I don’t care about the rest I don’t even care how eye roll the girls in masks were

Remember Love?

LMFAO out of all her videos, you wanna compare this to LOVE?! Love is one of her best chile

[Flowerbomb 65,593]

The music video is cute. I just loved watching that girl skate on the road. Paired with the music, her moves were entrancing and dreamy

[Downtown Baby Doll 5,310]

Sorry but the masks totally ruin the vibe of the video

 

Do we think there was a meaning behind her visibly wearing the sling  or is it not that deep

I just really dislike the overuse of the body double ...

 

I know she broke her arms but they should have changed the concept idk

maybe with the use of close up shots representing "current Lana" reminiscing her waitdress days whilst looking at the young girls in the video... or they could have included archive footage of waitress in rollerskate or IDK

 

Them focusing on a body double for most of the video is just really annoying to me

ur telling me its not lana skating down that road.. 

[lifeisavelvetcrowbar 1,233]

I don’t hate the scene of the girls in masks. The obvious connection I see to Lana is that this is kind of Lana’s way of apologizing or making amends for the mesh mask. 
 

But I also think it’s deeper than that. At the beginning of the video, I assumed that this video is set around 2007 and the girl is playing Lana when she was young, but then we see the waitresses in the mask and you realize that the video is set in the covid era, and that gives it an anachronistic twist. It makes me think, these girls are not playing a young Lana, but rather Lana is seeing these girls and it reminds her of herself when she was that age.

Also, the song is about how she was happier when she had nothing, just waitressing to survive. I think the mask imagery fits into that nicely, like these are front line workers who are risking their health to make some cash, but they are doing it with grace and joy. In the middle of a brutal world ravaged by pandemic, there is this little pocket of beauty and the girls are the God of that small world.
 

I know the broken arm was just a coincidence, but I also think that imagery fits in thematically with the video. We have the beauty and serenity of the roller blade dance, and then we have the image of the cast implying she fell and hurt herself. It’s like the most beautiful things in life are worth suffering for, you can’t have the beauty without the pain. Or like how the passion and recklessness of youth can turn into scarred and jaded adulthood, but it’s still beautiful while it lasts.

they're definitely not being used as a trend. they were using masks so that no one on the set got covid lol.

fair enough but there are ways around it, like i said before she didn't use them in the Chemtrails video (except for when she's alone in the car for some reason) i just don't like seeing them in music videos it's a little tacky imo
