Daas Yochid-Thank you for providing so many ?”?.
Getting off the yeharag al yaavor topic I do think one can make a chiluk between live and picture.
From an article by Rabbi Yair Hoffman on Shidduch Pictures (where he discusses ???????):
“One may also ask if the same prohibition would apply in a photograph as in live. The Poskim do deal with viewing it through a mirror or other medium. Rav Palaji (in Responsa Shma Avrohom #46 cited by Rav Ovadiah Yoseph in Yechave Daas 4:7) rules that it does. Rav Yoseph Chaim Zonnenfeld is cited as someone who is more lenient and differentiates between a picture and a live person if there is no chance that it could bring one to improper thoughts.”
So there is possibly more room to be lenient for movies.
