Movieline Premieres the Jackie-licious Poster for Smash His Camera

smash_his_camera_poster_585.jpgRight off the line, still hot to the touch and redolent of that sexy new-poster smell, the one-sheet for Smash His Camera has landed exclusively in Movieline's driveway. The documentary profiles self-anointed "paparazzo superstar" Ron Galella through nearly five decades of getting up close and personal (maybe too personal) with some of the most famous celebrities in the world. Oscar-winner Leon Gast took home Sundance's Best Documentary Directing prize for the film following its premiere in January, when even Robert Redford himself spoke of that one time -- and I do mean only one time -- he outwitted Galella.

But the shutterbug's favorite subject by far was Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, from whose many protests against Galella the film's title is taken. I wonder how Jackie's family would feel about her likeness (in what happens to be Galella's favorite portrait) being used to sell her bete noire's life story? And that chasing-Brando-in-a-football-helmet one was so much fun! Anyway, Smash His Camera opens July 30; look for more here that week from Galella and Gast. Onward! Poster!
