Anecdotes:

Near the beginning of the movie, as the Yorkin family is going over their set of developed photos while in their house, they are eating Chinese food and inside of an opened fortune cookie it reads "Someone wants you to be happy". Director Mark Romanek actually searched through 30 fortune cookies before he found one that related to the film and used it in the scene.

Goofs:

Erreurs faites par les personnages (éventuellement des erreurs délibérées par les cinéastes): The Neon Genesis Evangelion toy Jake has is not of a good guy. The toy is of a villain in the movie "The End Of Evangelion". It is of one of those "production series" Evangelions made by Seele in order for the Third Impact to take place.

Strong performances save the day.

Yes, Robin Williams does steal the show. He's an underrated actor, who, given a good script can deliver a mind boggling performance. That's exactly what One hour photo is, a good script with brilliant performances. The whole cast does an excellent job of showing how the events of one deranged man can impact the lives of many. Let's get one thing straight, though, this not a mainstream movie. It is very much an independant film. If you don't like movies with little action or a low budget don't see this movie. This film is good because of its' strong performances and decent script. I must say, though, without Williams as the lead, this movie would not have been as good as it was.
