Subject: [Leica] film suggestion

Here's a new movie worth viewing by those who like great photography: "Life Without
Death," an autobiographical documentary (!) by an Ottawa man named Frank Cole who was
so obsessed with death he crossed the Sahara alone by camel, carrying three Bolex
16mm cameras (the Leica of cinema cameras?).
The story is heavy, the character not for everyone. Magnificent cinematography
though, much of it really reminds of great still photography.
