[Leica] Larry Towell documentary

[lists at paulhardycarter.com (PHC)]

Thanks for that Emanuel. I'll see if I can track that down.

Towell is a great photographer, often sadly overlooked. I have seen  
the documentary "Magnum: The Changing of a Myth" in which Towell  
features. At one point his M4 jams, ending a day's shooting, and he  
is last seen banging it on the steering wheel of his car! The damage  
to the car is unrecorded.
