Films about photographers?

Looks like my post was one of the victims. On Netflix (and presumably elsewhere) is a documentary on pro photographer Eddie Adams whose career started documenting the Vietnam war, much like our own Gary Ayala.

The title is: "An Unlikely Weapon: The Eddie Adams Story"
 
I just watched one on PBS last night called "Eye on the Sixties: The Iconic Photography of Rowland Scherman" .It seems it is still playing in some areas. I was not familiar with him, his most recognizable shot was the cover of a rimlit Bob Dylan on his Greatest Hits album. He seemed sort of like Forest Gump being at a whole lot of places during those times. Kind of bittersweet seeing him reflect from today's vantage point in his late 70's.
