Based on the novel Red Alert by Peter George, Stanley Kubrick's Cold War masterpiece drops you right at the height of the tensions between the USSR and the United States, world destruction literally at folks' fingertips. And General Jack D. Ripper (Sterling Hayden) has itchy fingers. Convinced that the Soviets have infiltrated America's "vital essence," the crazed Ripper gives the go code to the 843rd bomb wing to attack the Soviet Union, setting in motion a series of darkly hilarious vignettes involving gung-ho soldiers, wacky generals, spying Soviets, drunken premiers, battles with soda machines, fights in the War Room, and the Soviet's top-secret Doomsday Machine.

Anne M. Hyland is senior lecturer in music analysis at the University of Manchester. She earned her Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge, focusing on the function of repetition in Schubert’s chamber music. Her 2023 book, Schubert’s String Quartets: The Teleology of Lyric Form (CUP), explores innovative ways that Schubert’s music integrates lyricism with sonata form. Her research also engages the music of Hummel, Onslow, and Chopin as part of a British Academy/Leverhulme-supported project and a Collaborative Strategic Partnership with the University of Toronto. Prof. Hyland was awarded the Anthony Pople Mid-Career Research Award of the Society for Music Analysis in September 2024 and a Teaching Excellence Award at the University of Manchester (2024) for her efforts to make music analysis more accessible to a diverse student body.
