    It’s not that Lana Del Ray’s bad at what she’s doing, per se, it’s that she, for the love of god, doesn’t want to be doing it, to her very core, and it shows. She doesn’t buy into this package of grainy films and bluesy indie helpless women who idealize the Male Gaze, living for it, supping on it as though a vital nutrient, weird and sad and desperate, superimposed on a vaguely Norman Rockwell-ish package any more than anyone else.
