One especially stormy and evocative scene for Natalie Portman comes as a fictional moment, as Jackie listens to a recording of "Camelot", while roaming the White House, desperately trying on a series of gowns and dresses, none of which seems to express what she wants in this moment, when all her instincts are to unravel, yet she must continue with her façade some way and somehow. Pablo Larraín said of the scene: "You have the most stylish woman in the world not knowing how to dress, because suddenly, she didn't know exactly who she was. Our thought was that she would just keep trying dresses, and with Natalie, it ended up as a beautiful, sad metaphor of an internal crisis of identity."
