An Unlikely Weapon

I've just came back from watching the documentary "An Unlikely Weapon". All photogs should see this movie featuring Eddie Adams and about our craft.

Adams was the AP photojournalist who captured the Vietnam War image of the ARVN General shooting the handcuffed VC on the street in Saigon. While the movies spoke at length about this photo it went into greater depth about Adams, all his images and his colleges.

Well worth seeing. In SoCal/Los Angeles the movie is playing at the Regency Theater in Santa Ana (South Coast Plaza) and at Laemmie's Music Hall 3 in Beverly Hills. There also is a write up in Friday's LA Times calendar section.
