A tall, grey-haired lunar queen in a silver lamé gown strikes a quartz tuning fork against a grand chrome pipe-organ atop a symmetrical glass staircase.

At the top of a sweeping glass-brick staircase, the lunar queen strikes a crystalline tuning fork against a towering chrome pipe-organ console to summon her court. Framed with the grand symmetry and high-key studio brilliance of a 1960s 65mm musical, the Eastman 5251 stock carries a silvery bleach-bypass sheen, desaturated pastels, lifted blacks, and fine visible grain.
