"Restrepo" co-director killed on the job ...
I recently saw the movie/documentary "Restrepo" and I found it VERY ... I can't think of the right word for it ... but it definitely made me feel for the soldiers in it and gave me the kind of perspective that we can't really get from watching the news at home.
I was very saddened to hear that Tim Hetherington, one of the two directors of the movie, was killed in Libya ... on the job - along with colleague Chris Hondros. I am not sure you can call it "dying doing what he loved" - more like "dying doing what he believed in." Sigh! Alberto |

While I haven't seen the movie I listened to an interview on red radio this afternoon of a sergeant who was in the documentary, and he was very complimentary about Hetherington and his professionalism.
