Overview
Letterboxd Photos adds a photo gallery directly to every Letterboxd film page —
so you can see how a film actually looks without leaving the site.
What it adds:
• Stills & posters — a photo carousel on every film page
• Full-screen lightbox — single view or grid, with keyboard nav
• Cast & crew galleries — every contributor's TMDB photos on their page
• Faces on hover — actor, director and crew photos in Letterboxd's role tooltip
• Search thumbnails — real TMDB photos in place of the star icon on search results
