It evokes (the same way indigestion follows an amazing banquet) the memory of Michelangelo Antonioni's Blow-up); however, where Antonioni's cinematic classic sought to out the uncanny power of cameras (as Michael Powell had with Peeping Tom), television's InStyle en espaƱol merely, and without irony, repeats the troped-out trope of stardom as the apex of identity, of the celebrity actress/model as 21st-century avatar of the ideal.
I will stick with Antonioni!
