Lana Del Rey shoots Biblical film
Written by . Published: December 07 2013
Lana Del Rey has taken on the role of Biblical character Eve in a bizarre new short film which brings Elvis Presley, John Wayne, Marilyn Monroe and Jesus Christ together in the Garden of Eden.
The singer has made the 30-minute movie, Tropico, to promote a new EP of the same name and an extended version of her album Born To Die.
Del Rey plays Eve in a kooky adaptation of the Biblical story of
sin and redemption, which is set to songs including Gods And
Monsters and Body Electric, and features a Jesus character
preaching while actors dressed as Monroe, Presley and Wayne
dance.
