The Unknown Known (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

拉姆斯菲尔德,全名唐纳德•亨利•拉姆斯菲尔德,出生于美国伊利诺伊州,曾任美国国防部长。他一直被外界认为是小布什内阁中的著名鹰派代表人物之一。被认为是设计了整个伊拉克战争的人。有报道指在乔治•布什甫上任时,拉姆斯菲尔德便立即提出攻打伊拉克的主张,而是项主张亦在伊拉克战争美军正式挥军入侵时得以落实。由于美国在伊拉克战事结束后当地常发生恐怖袭击,美军在袭击中死亡人数截至2005年末已超过二千人,不少要求拉姆斯菲尔德下台,他本人也屡次请辞,但却获小布什多番挽留。2006年美国中期选举,共和党落败,失去参众两院的多数。翌日(11月8日),拉姆斯菲尔德宣布辞职。拉姆斯菲尔德现在马里兰和新墨西哥两地居住。2011年出版回忆录“已知与未知”(Known and Unknown)——这本传记的标题就是本片标题的由来。 La-La Land Records presents the original motion picture score to the new, acclaimed documentary feature film THE UNKNOWN KNOWN, in theaters now, directed by renowned filmmaker Errol Morris (STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE, THE FOG OF WAR, THE THIN BLUE LINE).

Produced by Danny Elfman and mastered by Patricia Sullivan this release showcases another notable work from one of contemporary filmdom’s most talented and celebrated composers.
