WAR
“By cowardice I do not mean fear. Cowardice… is a label we reserve for something a man does. What passes through his mind is his own affair.” - Lord Moran, The Anatomy of Courage (from “War” by Junger)
One of the most moving pieces of documentary that I’ve seen or read of late is the dual documentation of the FOB Restrepo by Sebastien Junger (writer) and Tim Hetherington (photographer/videographer).
What began as a long-term assignment for Vanity Fair by both turned into a moving documentary named after a medic killed in the early days of their assignment, Restrepo.
It also was the basis of a book by Junger called “War”.
It also resulted in some of the most breath taking photography that I’ve ever seen by Hetherington.
As you may know, Hetherington was killed while photographing the conflict in Libya last year.
