The Unanswered Question IV : The Delights and Dangers of Ambiguity

This series comprised six lectures on music, which cumulatively took the title of a work by Charles Ives, The Unanswered Question. Bernstein drew analogies to other disciplines, such as poetry, aesthetics, and especially linguistics, hoping to make these lectures accessible to an audience with limited or no musical experience, while maintaining an intelligent level of discourse: Bernstein provides two distinct meanings of the term ambiguity. The first is "doubtful or uncertain" and the second, "capable of being understood in two or more possible senses"

Box

The execution was scheduled and the last meal consumed. The coolness of the poisons entering the blood system slowed the heart rate and sent him on the way to Judgement. He had paid for his crime with years on Death Row waiting for this moment and now he would pay for them again as the judgment continued..

Captain Nulle

Valdis Nulle is a young and ambitious captain of fishing ship 'Dzintars'. He has his views on fishing methods but the sea makes its own rules. Kolkhoz authorities are forced to include dubious characters in his crew, for example, former captain Bauze and silent alcoholic Juhans. The young captain lacks experience in working with so many fishermen on board. Unexpectedly, pretty engineer Sabīne is ordered to test a new construction fishing net on Nulle's ship and 'production conflict' between her and the captain arises...

Solitary Road

Constructed in 1955 to initially connect Kiruna in Sweden to Altavatn in Norway, the work with the Solitary road was stopped for military reasons. Five small villages had been connected by the road and they were left with a deserted 20 km stretch in the wilderness. Along the road Sami people and finish farmers continue their lives. They still have the road and they have brought really old cars over the ice of Torneträsk so they could drive during summer time. One of the old men that built the road, Sven-Erik Stöckel, writes a letter to the politicians in Kiruna, asking them to finish the road so people do not have to risk their lives getting to the road crossing the dangerous lake of Torneträsk. Will it ever be finished? And what happened to the children that were born as a result of the road workers coming into the wilderness meeting the local girls?

Um Doce Assassinato

A época mais movimentada do ano também passa a ser o momento mais maravilhoso ... para biscoitos de Natal, e o próprio pudim de ameixa especial de Hannah. Ela está tão ocupada e amando..porém, mais um caso aparece e há suspeitos - uma amarga ex-mulher, a filha do ex-sócio da vítima, uma mulher que a vítima estava cortejando, e alguns investidores. Agora, com tantos suspeitos para investigar e os doze dias antes do Natal voando, Hannah precisa correr contra o tempo, e solucionar o caso, antes que chegue o Ano Novo.

Velvet Goldmine

Em 1971, o glam rock invade o mundo da música britânica, provocando uma verdadeira revolução, não apenas na música mas também nos costumes da sociedade. O ícone do movimento é Brian Slade (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers), roqueiro que leva garotas e rapazes a pintarem as unhas, usarem batom e explorarem sua sexualidade. Incapaz de lidar com a fama adquirida, Brian forja sua própria morte, com a farsa sendo descoberta logo depois. Anos mais tarde, um jornalista inglês (Christian Bale) começa a investigar seu desaparecimento.

A Festa Nunca Termina

Um retrato crítico sobre o cenário musical da década de 1980, visto através do olhar de Tony Wilson - um apresentador de TV recém-formado em Cambridge, que inspirado pelo primeiro show dos Sex Pistols em Manchester, funda a hoje mundialmente famosa, Factory Records e a Danceteria Haçienda. As bandas contratadas por ele incluíram Joy Division e The Happy Mondays, enquanto a Haçienda transformou Manchester. Tudo construído sob a filosofia comercial anárquica de Wilson - nada de contrato, só paixão, música e hedonismo - se a banda não gostar, está livre para partir. Ninguém vai embora , mas com dívidas e as ressacas pertubando os cérebros, tudo acaba ficando descontrolado. O comediante Steve Coogan interpreta Wilson em sua luta para manter-se de pé em um mundo de gênios viciados e angustiados. A trilha sonora inclui sucessos dos grupos The Happy Mondays, New Order e Joy Division.
