It was awhile back, but I think there were three scenes with a screw-mount Leica (IIIC?), used in connection with the town's newspaper. However, in one scene it looked like the actor was taking photos with the collapsible lens not extended! At least as a "period" movie of the 1950's, they didn't add motor-whirring sound effects. I enjoyed the movie for its slow, soft pace, excellent photography and just enough moral dilema to keep you wondering. On DVD, the making-the-movie trailers were very interesting, too. And the Leica seemed to fit the character of the conscientious father who owned the newspaper. Regards, Gary Todoroff Tree LUGger
