Lana Del Rey has released a 13-second teaser for her short film Tropico. It features Del Rey dressed as the Virgin Mary in a white veil. Keeping with the religious undertones she whispers "Dear John, forgive us our sins," repeatedly. The clip ends abruptly with a cowboy wielding a rifle. In the background, the orchestral music for the establishing shot of feature films plays (a.k.a. the sound you hear before the movie starts).
The 30-minute short film stars model Shaun Ross and is co-produced by Rick Rubin. According Billboard, it is being called, "Elvis and Jesus and Marilyn and extraterrestrials all in one." The article suggests that the film might be a long-form music video for Born To Die track or the Paradise EP.
Del Rey has yet to announce a release date for the film, so this clip will have to suffice for the time being. Watch the clip here, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!
