One Hour Photo

"Robin Williams as Seymour "Sy" Parrish"

"Gary Cole as Bill Owens, Manager"

"Ive been doing P.O.S. mini-lab work for over 20 years now. I consider it an important job. When peoples houses are on fire, whats the first thing they save after their pets and their loved ones are safe? The family photos. Some people think that this is a job for a clerk. They actually believe that any idiot that attends a two-day seminar can master the art of making beautiful prints in less than an hour. Of course, like most things, theres far more to it than meets the eye. Ive seen the prints they fop off on people at the Rexall or Fotek, milky washed out prints, too dark prints. Theres no sense of reverence for the service theyre providing for people. I process these photos as if they were my own."

"Im sure my customers never think about it, but these snapshots are their little stands against the flow of time. The shutter is clicked, the flash goes off and theyve stopped time - just for the blink of an eye. And if these pictures have anything important to say to future generations, its this: I was here. I existed. I was young, I was happy, and someone cared enough about me in this world to take my picture."
