Recently, I have seen ice skaters perform to a famous piece of supposedly 18th-century music that was actually "reconstructed" from a mere fragment in 1945. It was also used in a film that raised the international profile of its director and lead actor, who has since become somewhat controversial. What is this piece, to whom is it usually attributed, who "reconstructed" it, and what was that film? What specifically connects a director who won four Best Director Oscars, none of which were for the genre of film he is most associated with, and a famous play about incest? He sang on a record that topped the UK charts and won the Best Director Oscar for a film he also composed incidental music for. Who is he, what was the chart-topper and what was the film? Who is the director of the film "Cold Mountain"?
