I just watched City of God today and came to wonder, what other movies include some story related to photography? Doesn't necessarily have to be completely about photography, just include it in some way. By that I don't mean just show a camera for a second or two

Bridges of Madison County of course...

"Stepmom", Julia Roberts was a photographer.

My favorite is Blow Up from 1966. You have to see this one:

JohnCote

Rear Window, Under Fire.

Enjoy.

"One Hour Photo" starring Robin Williams. Not a comedy.

Blow out with John Travolta

Guy

Forgot, the best film is "The Killing Fields."

"Shutter"
A horror film.

Here are some:
Paparazzi; an actor tries to make photographers pay for an accident
War Stories; about photojournalists in Russian civil war
Spiderman I, II, and III; Peter Parker (Spiderman) made a living as a photographer
King Kong; a cinematographer (is that a real word?) finds/films King Kong.
Between Strangers; a Photojournalist wonders what happened to the subject of a photo
Lost in Translation; the main character is a photographer off to shoot in Tokyo

I went through my collection of DVDs....Thanks, that was fun...
Magic Captain Mario

Austin Powers, when using his secret cover as a world famous fashion photographer uses alot of cool Nikon F/FTN equipment.

The Omen w/Gregory Peck has some good scenes with old Nikon F and SP rangefinder gear.

El Salvador I think it's called w/James Wood. Movie sucks but it's about a gonzo type war photographer.

Momento?

This guy used photos to back track on his life, because he couldn't remember anything. He used a polaroid. The movie was hard for me to follow though, since it was basically backwards timeline...

Cool use of photography to drive a plot was "The Omen."

City of God is by far the best photography/er related movie I've ever seen. Such a visually intense flick.

Does anyone know the name of a small film about a female photographer that came out last year? I think it was a period piece.

the one with joe pesci about weedgie?

I think the movie is "Fur" in which Nicole Kidman plays the photographer Diane Arbus.

+1 for Michelangelo Antonioni's 1966 movie classic 'Blow Up'

War photographer

Blow up

Hitch's Rear Window

Bill Diamond (Wolfgang Panzer) probably not available everywhere and not great

Camera buff (Kieślowski)

Double Exposure: The Story of Margaret Bourke-White

Correction: An excellent horror film.

The original film, not the USA remake garbage, of course.

Harrison's Flowers is about a PJ and his wife.

thanks for all the suggestions, looks like I have a lot of movies to watch now

Julia Roberts is also a photographer in 'Closer', using Leica and Hassleblad gear IIRC.
