RIP Tim Hetherington

[Javito1986 14]

Co-director of Restrepo killed today in Misrata. His last tweet from yesterday:

 

"In besieged Libyan city of Misrata. Indiscriminate shelling by Qaddafi forces. No sign of NATO."

Oh man, that's awful. I just watched Restrepo over the weekend, and it was one of the most powerful pieces of film I have ever seen

Very sad to hear that Tim Hetherington has died.

 

As I said when RESTREPO was up for an Oscar, it should have won because it wasn't just an incredible documentary but because those guys put their lives on the line every day with the troops.

The fact that these guys are unarmed too, speaks volumes about their bravery
