PHOTOBOOTHS IN MOVIES & TV

Espion leve-toi

Yves Boisset (France, 1982, 98 min.)

Thanks to Les Matons for letting us know about this film, a late film starring the great Lino Ventura and Michel Piccoli. Sébastien Grenier (Ventura), a retired spy, takes Anna (Krystyna Janda) into a Prontophot photobooth in Zürich. He inserts the money, selects the four-photo option (rather than the one large photo) and lectures her as the flashes go off. We see four flashes, but the resulting photo shows only one photo, repeated four times.
