"Kodachrome" used as an adjective
On CNN today during their commentary on the democratic convention, the
anchor referred to John Edwards' as a "kodachrome family". I can only assume they meant "photogenic". I can't see them referring to them with anything that's specific about kodachrome film itself, 'cos that'd be too much for news coverage. So I guess now "kodachrome" as a word may just seep into common usage and we may start hearing it often, in the same way "technicolor" is, probably just 'cos it's a hip-sounding and more comprehensible word, far more so than ... say... "velvia family". I don't know why I feel i'll be annoyed next time i hear a wannabe-hipster describe something as... "it's like, sooo kodachrome"!! |
