Browsing through the 10/10 reviews makes me feel like a bit of a curmudgeon regarding this film. But, truth be told 1hour 15 minutes in and having tried to like it, there is really nothing to expect from the remaining 30 odd minutes.
Nice scenery sure enough, and it attempts to have heart, with a number of characters with their own trials and tribulations, and pf course a young mute kid, but its all a bit clunky, script wise and acting wise. Some of the premises that the plot is hung off, are too contrived, not convincing, like a cheap novel. Beau Bridges and the young mother were the acting high points, and to be fair most of the lesser parts were well acted, but a handful were just plain clunky performances.
Over all its a Hallmark level production/script, fine for a lazy afternoon watch.

I was privileged to see Camera on the big screen. It was a beautiful experience. I was immediately drawn into the story and the young boys' plight through his facial expressions. His eyes told volumes. The young actor did an amazing & believable job of portraying his character. I hope to see him in future films. Beau Bridges did an amazing job as well & it was great seeing him as I have enjoyed his past body of work. The actor who played the boys's mother was exceptional as was all the supporting cast. Well done!
A great inspiring story, well told.
It's available on Prime so I will be watching it again!

Many people criticized the film for being too sentimental, probably resenting the fact that it made them tear up, but it's not the kind of sad that you usually see in films. Instead it's a bit bittersweet, with an underlying solution for that sadness.
The story is about a little mute child in a poor fisherman village where everybody is struggling, is frustrated and sad. His mother is sad, his uncle is sad and he has no friends until he befriends an old man who fixes his old camera, the only thing he has left from his dead father. The lesson here being that even when life gives you lemons, you can see their beauty when you photograph them in black and white.
OK, I am a bit mean, but the movie is pretty beautiful. Beau Bridges piles on the gravitas of his voice and the nice old man vibe, the kid is actually a pretty good actor - and you know how rare that is, while the supporting characters all show moments of deepness without taking too much screen time. The ending is a bit weak, with some over the top farewell scenes with actors that don't really land them, but the rest of the film does convey that idea that you can find beauty in the most banal and sad moments.
Bottom line: not a masterpiece, but a good dramatic film.

This movie is about a mute 9-year-old boy named Oscar. After moving to a fishing town with his widowed mother, he gets bullied by other children and struggles to fit in. He finds peace in his camera which belonged to his late dad and forms a bond with the owner of a local repair shop, Eric Conway played by Beau Bridges. Eric shares with Oscar photography tips and spends time with him unlike anyone else, including his mother. The movie also tackles the modernisation debate brought up by one of the locals. Locals were divided between keep doing what they did for generations or build a luxury hotel to bring in tourists, create new jobs and boost the economy.
The movie was nice to watch. Miguel Gabriel who played Oscar did not convince me much with his performance however this seems to be his first movie for the big screen, so he is excused😊 I enjoyed more the performance of supporting actors Beau Bridges and Jessica Parker Kennedy (Oscar's mum). Cinematography and music were fine, and the ending was very emotional. Oscar manages to speak through his photography and in the process unite the divided locals.

I just watched Camera. I'm a photographer, almost an old fart, so I worked and still work a lot with film.
It's one of the greatest movies I ever watched. It's not just a beautiful movie with great actors, direction and plot, but also photography, the philosophy behind it and the meaning of it are perfectly described.
Jay Silverman made a gem and I'm glad I found it.
As a photographer fighting everyday to make people understand a photograph is much more than a phone snapshot I want to say a big thank you to Silverman for making this movie and communicating in such a beautiful way what photography really is. He made my life easier!
