One of the few movies that I watched so many times.
Heart touching and complete piece of artwork.
Very well written, directed and amazing performance by all stars.
The soundtrack is another level, serves the movie in every scene.
Sometimes I re-watch the movie just to enjoy the soundtrack that goes deeply to the soul.

I tend not to watch drama movies or romance etc , thank god that I didn't know what kind of movie it was so i had the chance to watch it , what a masterpiece!!! Calmness and love , being aged and fall in love , i felt like huged by the warmth of the scenes ...
Photocopy is film that revolves around an old man "Mahmoud Photocopy" who has an empty life and deals with the society that he has seen evolve around him. The story shows the real meaning of life and ironically how an old man can make the most out of it.
The film is very touching and easy to relate to no matter how old you are, the performances are all great excluding none. the music and the set locations are remarkable.
It's sad to know that such a meaningful film is not getting much recognition in the modern Egyptian cinema.

I really enjoyed this heart touching film. It provided me a glance of classical Egypt in twentieth century mixed with human feelings. It teaches us that our ability to enjoy life can't get extinct. The actors performance was great, especially that of Mahmoud Hemeida.
