Parecía tan genial”. como un pepino, pero ella estaba absorbiendo todo y todo lo que yo decía o [producer[ John DeLuca would say. She absorbed so quickly and would just do it, but she did it with taste.”

“You know, that was that’s what’s interesting. She understood camera and film immediately, and I thought that was sort of natural,” Marshall added. “You could see she’s natural on camera, truthful. But there’s something, you know, they say the camera loves you or, you know… the camera loves Halle. They it’s just there’s something about her.
