Restrepo Documentarian Tim Hetherington Confirmed Killed in Libya

Restrepo Documentarian Tim Hetherington Confirmed Killed in Libya "Having survived many dangerous photographic missions in his life, as well as repeated trips to the lethal Restrepo outpost in Afghanistan—now abandoned by U.S. military—where he shot Oscar-nominated doc Restrepo with co-director Sebastian Junger, British photojournalist and Vanity contributor Tim Hetherington, 41, has died during fighting in Misrata between Muammar Gaddafi’s soldiers and Libyan rebels, along with photographer Chris Hondros."

Restrepo is one of the best war films I've ever seen, well worth seeing.
