what is your favorite movie with film cameras being used ?

My favorite is "Pecker", Canonet 40/f2.8 lens.
Quite a risque movie about a boy who took street photorgaphy
as a past time and got famous by the New York art scene.
A lot of adult themes + comedy = "R" rating.

quite a lousy movie, but fun in that we can identify ourselves as street photographers.

Born into Brothels. by far the most inspirational documentary for me that so happens to be about using photography to break the poverty cycle.

War Photographer. Also one of my faves about James Nactwey. Think he uses Canon EOS 1d SLRs.

The Bang Bang Club - I think I heard the sound of a motor drive but I don't see one attached to the chrome Nikkormat.

In Rambo: First Blood, Rambo jumped out of a plane with a Nikon F3 in his backpack.

In Spy Game, Brad Pitt's character used a number of cameras. One of which was the FM2.
 

Eurotrip, off the top of my head.
Although the movie has nothing much to do with photography, it's still a classic.

"makes a Nikon look like a disposable"
