You will bare witness to crimes of passion or perhaps someone's passion for crime. And most importantly, you will realize the need to get the girl -- before she gets you. BAP! BAP!
The air of mystery will tempt you with the sounds and images of live jazz, edgy filmmaking, and the seduction of steamy burlesque all for your visceral pleasure.

If rock and roll had a brother, it would be Eddie Adams.

Narrated by Kiefer Sutherland, An Unlikely Weapon is the chilling story behind a photograph that some say ended the Vietnam War. In 1968, while covering the war for the Associated Press, Eddie Adams photographed a Saigon police chief, General Nguyen Nygoc Loan, shooting a Vietcong guerilla point blank. Ironically, it was Adams’ shot that was heard around the world, taken at 1/500th of a second! The photo brought Adams’ fame and a Pulitzer, but the man he had vilified haunted him. Adams would later say, “Two lives were destroyed that day – the victim’s and the general.” Yet others would say, three lives were destroyed. The film will be premiering at the Palm Springs Film Festival on January 14th, 2009 at 4:00 PM.
