Some good Barnack Leicas in use: "Chinatown" with Jack Nicholson and "Never Cry Wolf". Lastly Jon Voight using an M4 with a 135/4 Tele Elmar in "The Odessa File". All great films worth a watch. I'm sure there are lots more Leica in cinema.

Per above link:
Besides an array of cameras for normal use, for surreptitious work Kovac employs cameras hidden in a radio, cigarette lighter and even his necktie. He also has a phone in his car, and a portable darkroom in the trunk where he could develop his negatives on the spot.
Numerous camera used throughout the series.

Probably not in most peoples rotation, but the K-Drama “Crash Landing On You” uses the Kravitz Correspondent Edition M-P as a prominent plot device.

I think it is a M5. Can anyone guess the lens?

This whole Natalie Merchant - Carnival video is entirely set around street photography with a Leica M3 + 50mm Summicron DR (no goggles attached). I forgot about this music video, but it's actually really great, and the song is perfectly 90's...
What's especially interesting is she both focuses and fires the shutter with her right hand. Looks slow, but whatever works I guess.

I wish I could take street candids in such an insouciant manner! Good song, I'd never heard of her (or her music), but the star is that M3!

Well-known
Owen Wilson's character in The French Dispatch (great Wes Anderson movie) uses an M3 with what looks like a Zeiss 440 'revolver' finder that you'd generally expect to see on a Contax IIA or IIIA, which is rather odd (or whimsical)

Cameras. I has it.
I’ve had the hots for her since the 1990’s - the voice, the look (not so much the outfits). I have all her music, but I’ve not seen this video before - thanks!This whole Natalie Merchant ... I forgot about this music video, but it's actually really great, and the song is perfectly 90's...

For DC Comics nerds: in the "Pennyworth" series (formerly on EPIX, now HBO Max), Martha Kane (played by Emma Paetz) is shown using an M2.

Love the video. And of course the song is beautiful, as are the two stars: Natalie and the Leica

His darkroom has some bad light leaks though.
Actually Leica M4-P. Watched the movie last night. Not bad from a photographer's perspective and street photography angle if you can withstand all the gore
