Response to hollywood black and white developing

Even using small-format, modern films and processing, you can certainly approach the look you want by controlling your subjects' hair, makeup, costume, and pose, and by lighting correctly. The photographer Mark Vieira, who wrote the recent bio of George Hurrell, was and may still be emulating the Hurrell style using 8x10 film, etc. I've not seen any of his work. Others are probably doing it, too.
