    My favorite movie/TV LF mangling has always been the photographer with his head under the darkcloth as he makes the exposure...usually with flash powder,in full sun.

    Joaquin Phoenix does a stint as a department store portrait photographer (SpeedGraphic?), who eventually pummels one of his sitters out of boredom and PTSD insanity, in The Master. But, I cannot recommend seeing this mess of a film despite the LF, 70mm, otherwise fine acting, or even a naked and pregnant Amy Adams.

    Chinese show by the name 黃飛鴻. There is a female lead in the show who is a photograph otaku. She rushing into the house to save her camera and take photo of the burning house while totally forgetting that she dropped the important fan in the fire that the male lead requested her to protect in the fire.

    Not a movie, but isn't that a Sinar in there?



    It took 3 days to shoot, was all shot on 10×8 inch film, so the quality in the whites is fantastic, so much subtle tone.

    Well, I went to see the Ironman 3 movie with my son. It was ok. I wonder if the series is done? But, what I thought was really fun was the giant Edward Weston's Pepper #30 photograph on Tony Stark's love interest office wall. Then it hit me Her name is Pepper Potts. D'OH!

    An old fave of mine too Andreas, I was going to post it myself. As an aside I live in London and last year went and sought out the uncanny park where the crucial scenes were shot.It's still there, pretty much unchanged, looking slightly smaller in real life than it does on screen. It's still empty and strangely eerie too.

    Where is that park exactly? I'd like to go there next time I am in London.
