"Blowup" from 1966 is a movie about which I read regularly in the TV guide when I was a kid back in the 1990s, but I never actually saw it.

A story of a photographer who captures *something* in the background when casually taking picture in a park. Mysterious by design and with a lot of flesh in it.
