Watched this moving HBO documentary this afternoon about the bombings of Hiroshima & Nagasaki. It can be hard to watch, but IMHO, should be seen.
I'm almost hesitant to mention the soundtrack because I don't want to diminish the importance of the material, but I found it amazing. It very, very subtly supported the interviews and the tone of the story being told. I've been trying to find the credits but haven't been successful yet. I recognized Mogwai (and I'm doubtful they'd be very useful for spinning). I just felt that the use of music in this file was a lesson in how it could fully support the message, without the need to be front & center.
