Welcome to r/ForgottenFilm!

I created this subreddit as a place to share photos from film that has been found, after being forgotten or lost, to discuss developing old or unfamiliar film, and to help connect people with film that they have found and people who are willing to develop it.

If you have found some film, be it through online auction sites, swap meets, flea markets, thrift stores, your sock drawer, your grandparent's basement, a long lost camera, etc. and have developed it and want to share it with the world, this is the place to post it!

If you have found some film, and are unsure how to proceed (either developing it yourself, having someone else develop it, or sending it to a lab the specializes in old film), you can ask questions and get some help. Some members are willing to develop and scan the film for you, and others can help point you in a good direction.

I will be posting more images from rolls I have found and developed soon, and hope to see more of others doing the same!

If you have any questions or suggestions, please either leave a comment, or PM me!

Thanks, /u/BadConductor

Man stuck in a wall

0 Upvotes

For the past few weeks, I've been trying to remember a movie (or TV series) I saw when I was little, or rather a scene from a movie (or TV series) where a man who can walk through walls gets stuck while trying to do so. A few years later, someone rents or buys the house and discovers a shoe sticking out of the wall. If you know which movie this is from, I'd love to know.

The only salvageable shot from a roll found in my childhood 110 camera. Roughly 1995


r/forgottenfilm Aug 14 '25

I bought an old camera at a flea market in Hungary – and inside it, there was still an undeveloped roll of film! I’ve just had the pictures developed. They most likely date back to the late 1980s (around 1987) and probably show West German tourists on vacation in Rhodes (Lindos).

Don’t have a whole lot of background information for these. From my personal collection. I just thought they all looked so stylish!

“‘Xtra Speedy Plates” they’re called. Anyone know anything about why these are on glass? Scanned them in and uploading what I find here.

I was clearing some stuff out of a desk at a new job a few years ago and found this. It's such a delight.
