Absolutely incredible movie, SO raw yet sensitive, remarkably deft portrayal of America in the grip of Cold War paranoia, moral hysteria & sociocultural crisis reflected in this snapshot of a critically-dysfunctional family. What pathos, sexual repression & creative antagonism, setting the stage for the endemic fraud, venality, corruption & decay that has sabotaged our institutions & crippled society, totally subverting our nation's character & betraying its essential principles.
What does Norma say when her sister takes the picture? "Caper 21"? Huh? And what was that scene of someone climbing out of a suitcase? Oh- air-raid shelter. OK, so I have to watch the whole thing to find out, don't I?

The thing their dad was climbing out of wasn't a suit case, it was their bomb shelter.
i'm not sure what Norma said when Lou took the picture from her though.
