Movies about photography

What movies have you guys seen that were about photographers, or photography in general?
Not just documental. I want to watch some and looking for recommendations.

Minamata - I have seen it, very good.
Under Fire looks good, haven't seen it.
Blow Up
Rear Window
Salvador

There was that robin williams film. Not sure if it counts since he was the photo developer not a photographer.

Blow Up was an iconic period piece of Swinging Lodon psychedelia ....
"The company [Taylor Farms] made two (2) million-dollar donations: $1 million to the Congressional Leadership Fund, which supports Republican candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives, and $1 million for MAGA Inc, a super PAC that supports Trump.
The $1 million to MAGA Inc was made on March 25, 2025, just just six days after the FDA announced it was delaying the implementation of its “Food Traceability Rule” by 30 months."

There is an awesome short sequence of the Yardbirds at their peak, if you are into 60s music.

The main character is a photographer, it doesn't come up too much, but he takes creepy pics on the subway for an art show or something. The end of the movie is so ****ed I don't blame you forgetting that entire subplot.

For Shutter I only ever seen the Thai one, but there's an American remake as well.
