Film: One Hour Photo (2002)


IMDb 7.0

"truly, deeply scary"

I was thinking of having a large metal wall to display my photographs magnetically. Having seen this film, I am having second thoughts!

What I Liked about this film?

  • Photos by kid with instant camera are intense and highly saturated images of toys, mainly close-up. They are superb!
  • Great to see cutting of negatives and film process.
  • Leica Digilux camera

Street Photography Tips

  • Travel light, one or two lenses adequate
  • Carry camera over shoulder, ready
  • Use 1/250, f8
  • Get close
  • See a 'canvas' and wait for subject to walk into it
  • Keep shooting even after you think you have the shot
  • Keep the camera lower than subject's eye-level
  • You have three seconds before you get noticed, when you do, stay part of the scene, smile and interact
