Helmut Newton got us using Hasselblad ring lights (no longer made) in the late seventies.
Has he used them much in the last ten or twenty?
So many people doing Helmut newton imitations but he does the best one!

and his favorite black and white film would seem to be Kodachrome as that is
what so much of his stuff you see is printed from.

The same film you had been apparently seeing in that gorgeous classic black and
white "victory at sea" stuff.
But now they show it to you in color! Is it as classic.

So much great black and white being done with Kodachrome!
