剧情介绍
Alastair Sooke explores the mysterious appeal of unfinished works of art. From Dickens's unfinished The Mystery of Edwin Drood and Jane Austen's Sanditon to Coleridge's Kubla Khan, he talks to those who have attempted to finish these literary enigmas and those who believe that any such task is impossible.
In a film that picks through literature's leftovers, Sooke explores the moral dilemmas as well as the commercial opportunities finishing presents. And he considers how, in the modern era, artists have purposefully left their work unfinished.
Paul Morley, Mark Lawson, John Mullan, Robert McKee, Sarah Churchwell, Gwyneth Hughes, Andrew Motion and Mike Figgis amongst others, help Sooke work his way through a never-ending story.

Sense of An Ending-Frank Kermode.All our ideologies in the West are teleological.They're going somewhere.To some extent,we're all wired for conclusions.We're motivated to look for endings.One of the principles of any art is that it's unified.残缺也可以创造永恒。

作家与读者之间有一道不可见的紧密关系,读者能辨认出心仪作家的笔锋结构与性情,这是模仿不来的(尤其是性情与转向)。类型小说与功能性人物相对好模仿重构一些。在红楼梦未完的国度,对于unfinished一事,早已安之若素了。

Whoa看到的第一个这种类型的纪录片,好看好看。探讨结局的意义,很值得思考。主持人小哥哥气质棒极了简直,下决心补全他的作品了。黑道家族那个结局,实在是太厉害了。
