One Hour Photo/YMMV


  • Alternative Character Interpretation—The director stated that the end of the movie, showing a photograph of the Yorkin Family with Sy beaming among them was meant to be ambiguous. He said that in his opinion, the Yorkins forgave Sy because he ended up saving their family, and he got to be part of them like he always wanted to. But taking the work by itself, it's equally plausable that we are seeing Sy is still trapped in his delusions, thinking that he's part of their family unit.
  • Non Sequitur Scene—Despite having one really bad dream, Sy never mentions it.
  • Fridge Horror—Some of Sy's earlier lines become a lot creepier after watching the interrogation scene. For example, when he casually mentions to Jake how he was sick a lot as a child. Specifically mono ... and hepatitis.
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel—Sy's dream sequence. See below. Also, arguably, the whole movie.
  • Paranoia Fuel—This movie is a damn good reason to only use a digital camera.
  • Squick -- Sy's interrogation.
    • The photos Sy allegedly takes in the hotel.
  • Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds—Especially when you find out what made Sy crazy.
