Lana Del Rey’s newest single, the haunting “Young And Beautiful,” from the soundtrack to THE GREAT GATSBY now has an equally beautiful and haunting new video!
The video features a very glammed up Del Rey as she slowly twirls while singing the ballad. She’s dressed up in very 1920s-esque fashion topped off with a pair of crystal tears stuck to beneath her eye. Meanwhile, a faceless orchestra accompanies the singer for this beautiful and melancholy tune.
Directed by Chris Sweeney, who has directed videos for acts such as Mariana and the Diamonds and the Foals, the video was shot by the great Sophie Muller who has worked on memorable videos or bands such as No Doubt and Blur. The song is Del Rey’s contribution to the much talked about GREAT GATSBY soundtrack which is available to buy now.
