'Jackie' paints mystery of First Lady after assassinationFilm director Pablo Larrain said his portrayal of Jacqueline Kennedy in the aftermath of her husband's assassination is not a biopic but rather a chance to look at an intriguing and painful story from the point of view of the former first lady. Director Pablo Larrain (L) poses with actress Natalie Portman as they attend the photocall for the movie ''Jackie'' at the 73rd Venice Film Festival in Venice, Italy September 7, 2016. "I believe that Jackie was someone incredibly mysterious, probably one of the most unknown from the known people," the Chilean director told a press conference. The movie shows Jackie in the first week after the assassination as she struggles to come to terms with the tragedy and her own grief. Larrain said the movie was not trying to deliver all the answers but rather leave something for the audience to digest.
