Episode 67 • Your Extra Time and Your Kiss I Dream of Cameras
-
- Visual Arts
“Pablo Larraín, the film’s Chilean director, felt [Jackie] Kennedy’s love of beauty was so integral to her character that he requested [Natalie] Portman utter ‘I love beauty’ at some point during the shooting of every scene.” This is absurd, but not as absurd as Episode № 67 of I Dream of Cameras, “Your Extra Time and Your Kiss,” in which we discuss cameras called Beauty and Kiss and Super. Tune in for all the mayhem!

* After much equivocation, and after handling the lens at B&H, he concluded he does not need the extravagantly-priced 30mm for the Hasselblad XPan
* Gabe did an all-film photo shoot with Claire Hinkley during the recent L.A. monsoon
* Also shot Kylie Silkman and her sister Danica with the stunning Helios-44 lens
