Went to see this show starring Jennifer
Connelly<http://au.movies.yahoo.com/Jennifer+Connelly/biography/121914/>and
Leonardo 
DiCaprio.<http://au.movies.yahoo.com/Leonardo+DiCaprio/biography/62017/>

She was using a Leica M with what appears to be a 35 summicron and
retangular shade mounted.  Cannot make out the M model but seems of recent
vintage and she had to wind (so cannot be an M8). The camera was too mint to
be what journalists normally would carry in some war-torn zone in Africa.

It was nice to see an actress handling a Leica M in its prescribed manner.
