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.

Cool, thx JungleBoy.

Before anyone wastes their time looking, the subs aren't available on the MVGroup wiki page. They do
have several other cool docs that might interest anyone that checks this one out.... They suggest:

* Modern Masters
* The World's Most Expensive Paintings
* Armando's Tale of Charles Dickens
* Great Books: Great Expectations
* Mrs Dickens Family Christmas
* The Art on Your Wall
* This Green and Pleasant Land
* The Pitmen Painters
* A Passion for the Pre-Raphaelites
* British Masters

MVGroup are so incredibly cool.

Thx again for the info, JB.
