“With your big eyes, and your big lies,” Del Rey sings at first over images of a blonde-bobbed Amy Adams as Keane, entering the verse, “Is it me, was I wrong to have trusted you? / Did I see what I wanted, what wasn’t true? / Was I wrong to go on like a little fool? / It’s amazing what women in love will do.”

“Big Eyes” is featured prominently mid-movie at a critical juncture where, as the film’s producer and co-writer Larry Karaszewski said last month, “it almost becomes a musical. Lana’s song expresses what Margaret is feeling so perfectly, it’s like a soliloquy of her inner thoughts.”

Del Rey has two contributions to Big Eyes, including this title track and another song called “I Can Fly,” which runs over the end credits.
