...Alexander Gardner's "staged" photographs - he was not above placing a rifle next to a corpse for dramatic effect - from Gettysburg. And Witness does not make fussy distinctions between "art" photography and "news" photography. Social documentarians Lewis Hine and Dorothea Lange mingle with Gilles Peress, James Nachtwey and Luc Delahaye, who made their names on battlefronts during the 1980s and '90s. Nachtwey's picture of a man staring up at one of the smoking World Trade Center towers perfectly renders the initial astonishment before it turned to horror. Letizia Battaglia, who risked her life to photograph the Mafia in Sicily...

It's because, although his office building off the highway in Austin, Texas, is lined with framed posters of French auteur Jean-Luc Godard movies, Richard Linklater is not a film snob. He just likes to make movies. "I would have loved to have been a '40s studio director like Vincente Minnelli. You ended up with a real diverse career," says Linklater. "Now you don't get a call from Darryl Zanuck saying...
