Thread: One Hour Photo

    Default One Hour Photo


    [size=18px]POSSIBLE SPOILERS[/size]

    Every shot in this film is exquisitely framed, the slow revelation of the thousands of photographs Sy has collected done to "Cape Fear" music while Sy watches THE SIMPSONS.The slow, stylized zoom towards the lens of Sy's still camera with his shutter clicking staccato and as we get closer the clicks become defeaning pounding.

    It gets to a point where the tension is almost unbearable. Yet we care for Sy... and maybe also for the cheating husband and Maya Burson. Those scenes I'm talking about are also extremely retarded but well done. This is one movie that's not easy to forget. But not very commendable screenplay-wise. But we must be aware of Romanek's technical expertise as he was a music video director. Just like David Fincher was.

    Robin Williams did a terrific job in his portrayal of Sy Parrish. It was a great twist from his usual comedic roles. In fact, this maybe his best performance yet.

    As MrBiddle said, the cinematography and other technical aspects of One Hour Photo was well done.

    2002 was his year of "dark trilogy"... this movie. and in INSOMNIA and DEATH TO SMOOCHY he departed from his usual roles. I haven't seen DEATH TO SMOOCHY... I thought he was great and sadistic too in INSOMNIA.

    Death To Smoochy is black comedy. His acting in that film wasn't as powerful as insomnia and one hour photo.

    insomnia is also quite haunting..especially for an insomniac like me.dying would be,as seen in the movie,the best cure for insomnia..

    I found 1 Hour Photo very disturbing. Was very impressed by the shots , the stark walls etc... nag sakit gyud akong dughan nag tan-aw.
    Havent seen insomia, I should rent it I guess. Death to Smoochy, I liked very much. Probably because of ed norton.

    that movie is very nice. it gave me the creeps and it made me uneasy... grabeh, it did not need blood and a people dying to make it scary. Made me think na paet kaau kung guapa/guapo kaau ta... naa nyay mu stalk nato... paet.

    but all in all. the script was good. the director was great. the concept, amazing. The acting by robin williams, superb!
