| Movies / Cameras in the Movies / TV / Media If you are a photographer, it's difficult not to appreciate movies too. In this forum you can discuss movies, as well as the cameras used in them.
What camera used in what film / TV show etc has long been a topic of discussion at RFF. Whether the Exakta and 400mm Kilfitt lens in Hitchcock's Rear Window or the Nikons in Eastwood's Bridges of Madison County, cameras are tools which reflect the time and technology of the film. |

"Casablanca" is my favorite movie of all time, Dave.
I can't tell you how many times I've seen it, ditto for
"Lawrence of Arabia", my 2nd most favorite. Thanks
for the heads up.

We watched it a couple of years ago, me, my wife and 12 year old daughter and 7 year old son.
Daughter: He likes that lady.
Son: I think this is a boring movie.
Wife: I don't know why they don't just stay in Casablanca.
That was my most enjoyable of many viewings.
So many good lines, not including the one that begins 'here's...'

Greatest movie ever.
Greatest actor ever (in that category)
greatest music ever
I have a beautiful special edition poster of it from the 50th anniversary.
Didn't see it for at least a year
I need a refill...

What a miserable night with a cold and the crud that goes with it, only to wake up and see that I am among other people with great taste in movies! In case you missed it, there are posters and DVDs and such available from TCM...

Yes, it's showing here in town on the 26th! Although I own the dvd, I want to see again on the big screen!

Great movie... one of my favorites!
One of my other hobbies is collecting vintage movie posters. While Casablanca paper is usually ridiculously expensive, I got this Belgian poster for reasonable price due to all the damage. However, I personally think it adds a ton of character. This movie was released in Belgium while the war was still raging and there was a country-wide paper shortage. It is very common to find posters from this period that were printed on the back of old maps, as this one was...
