I haven't seen that, but I liked Nick Nolte in Under Fire.

I remember hearing about the guy who killed himself (Kevin Carter).

Depressing shit....

 Quote:
I am depressed ... without phone ... money for rent ... money for child support ... money for debts ... money!!! ... I am haunted by the vivid memories of killings and corpses and anger and pain ... of starving or wounded children, of trigger-happy madmen, often police, of killer executioners ... I have gone to join Ken [recently deceased colleague Ken Oosterbroek] if I am that lucky.

There's a segment in there depicting he was heavily criticized for not helping the girl when he took the picture of her with the vulture in the background.

Wasn't his defense basically she was already dead at that point, so there was nothing else he could do?

I think if I had my choice of ways to be in a conflict zone I'd choose PJ if "not being there at all" wasn't an option.
