The Magnum Story II: The Savage Years / The Russian Prison: A Separate Life

Part two of this history of Magnum focuses on the '60s, a decade whose nearly constant turbulence was ably captured by Magnum photographers. Cornell Capa, Burt Glinn and Elliott Erwitt documented the changes in styles that characterized the Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon administrations, while Philip Jones Griffiths and Marc Riboud devoted much of their work to the war in Vietnam. Part two also looks at photographer Eve Arnold's work and experiences on the set of John Huston's The Misfits, with Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable.
