Mr. Finch (Michael Emerson), a mysterious billionaire, developed a computer program for the government that predicts terrorist threats to the US. It was designed as a means to prevent another 9/11-type disaster, but Finch discovered that it was also predicting many "irrelevant" (non-terrorist) crimes. The non-terrorist data is dumped to a separate database and deleted each night. Finch realized that a great many domestic crimes could also be prevented if that data could be used. Finch built a backdoor into the machine that allows him to retrieve a list of Social Security numbers of people who will be involved in those crimes in order of occurrence. Unable to investigate the data on his own, Finch hires John Reese (Jim Caviezel), a former Green Beret and CIA field officer who is presumed dead, to help stop the crimes from taking place. The world thinks that Finch, like Reese, is dead. Finch made the choice of only transmitting the Social Security Numbers of the persons of interest so that if the backdoor is discovered, the government would have no clue as to what the numbers mean or that Finch is still alive.

Think of early electronic music and you’ll likely see men pushing buttons, knobs, and boundaries. While electronic music is often perceived as a boys club, the truth is from the very beginning women have been integral in inventing the devices, techniques and tropes that would define the shape of sound for years to come. As one of the film’s subjects, Laurie Spiegel explains: “We women were especially drawn to electronic music when the possibility of a woman composing was in itself controversial. Electronics let us make music that could be heard by others without having to be taken seriously by the male-dominated establishment.” Feature documentary about electronic music’s unsung heroines: Clara Rockmore, Daphne Oram, Bebe Barron, Pauline Oliveros, Delia Derbyshire, Maryanne Amacher, Eliane Radigue, Suzanne Ciani, Laurie Spiegel. Narrator: Laurie Anderson. Director: Lisa Rovner

1885年，美国西部爆发反华暴力。怀俄明领地，华人矿工惨遭屠杀；全加利福尼亚州的社区与西北太平洋地区，上千名华人移民被骚扰、袭击，惨遭驱逐。贝丝•廖-威廉姆斯阐释了美国的移民政策是如何煽动这一系列的暴力，以及这些暴力如何反过来催生了美国新的排他主义政策。廖 -威廉姆斯最终认为，对华人的驱逐和排斥使得现代美国诞生了“外国人”的概念。 . 《中国人必须离开》的时间线起始于19世纪50年代，适逢联邦边境控制严格区分美国公民与外国人的前夕。在美国西部，华工数十年来砍树、铺路，面临着日益加剧的种族冲突和动乱侵扰。为应对骚乱，国会通过了1882年《排华法案》，首次尝试以种族和阶层为标准禁止外国移民。由于这一史无前例的联邦边境管控试验并未成功减缓华人移民入境，民团介入，试图亲自掌控事态。又因担心群众暴动进一步扩散，美国政策制定者变本加厉，试着将中国人拒之门外。他们不仅全面改革了移民法，还从此改写了美国同中国的外交关系。 . 通过在这个暴力时代重新找回现代美国的“外国人”，廖-威廉姆斯重申了排华史在美国历史上的重要地位。正如《中国人必须离开》所阐明的那样，反华法律及反华暴力仍影响着今天在美的外国移民。如今，仇外心理在美国重新抬头，其源头或可追溯至过去对于“异教徒中国佬”的巨大恐惧心理。 . 【本书获誉】 “《中国人必须离开》展现了一个曾不断拓展被奴役者和印第安人公民身份的国家，是如何以一种细碎、断续的方式，否定其他阶层的群体被纳入国籍的权利……种族暴力和社区的回避读起来相当残忍。廖-威廉姆斯尤其擅长调用驱逐法案通过之后，对居住在美国的华人心理上的影响。”——Rebecca Onion, 美国Slate杂志 . “本书重述了19世纪中后期美国白人工人针对华人移民的暴力，以及开始限制、后来驱逐华工这一系列法律的制定。贝丝•廖-威廉姆斯以她颇具技巧性的叙事，编织出种族歧视和排外主义的历史故事，在今天依然能引起读者的共鸣。”——Andrea Worden,《南华早报》 . “细致入微的调查和大胆运用概念，廖-威廉姆斯利用‘规模’透镜焦距的微妙变化，从地方、区域和国家等不同层面比照了反华运动。这段社会史通过强调反华暴力和地方自治的目标变化（从限制到驱逐），及两者在推进华人移民管制方面的作用，极大地重塑了既有的排华编年史。”——Madeline Y. Hsu，《亚裔美国人历史：一段非常简短的介绍》作者 . “《中国人必须离开》所呈现的关于种族暴力的有力论证再及时不过。它说明了为什么19世纪美国西部针对华人的大屠杀在今天仍能引起共鸣。白人民族主义者将华人移民视作他们家园和工作的威胁，并指责美国政府未能成功封锁边界。”——Richard White，《其所代表的共和国：重建和镀金时代（1865-1896）的美国》作者 . “《中国人必须离开》从地方层面无缝过渡到国际层面，提供了一个关于排华的引人入胜、文笔优美的新叙事，这种叙事铺陈了中国人的声音和经历，为我们理解移民和边界做出了重要贡献。”——Karl Jacoby，哥伦比亚大学

"Miss, what's that?" the kid asked the stewardess, pointing to a small crack that he noticed in celing above him. At that point, the crack widens and the entire roof of the airplane is ripped off. Based on a true story. On April 28, 1988, Aloha Airlines flight 243, halfway between Big Island and Maui, suddenly lost an 18-foot section of its front fuselage, due to metal fatigue. At 24,000 feet of altitude, the sudden decompression leaves room for panic in the cabin. But in the flight deck, Captain Schornstheimer and First Officer Tompkins are faced with the difficult task of safely landing the crippled, barely-controllable airliner, as the title says.

A man who lost his family in the September 11 attack on New York City runs into his old college roommate. Rekindling the friendship is the one thing that appears able to help the man recover from his grief.
