Morse (album)
''Morse'' is an album by the New Zealand musician Alastair Galbraith, released in 1993. Critical reception AllMusic wrote that "there's as much gentle sing-song as there is experimental exploration, often at the same time." ''Trouser Press'' called it a "superb" anthology, and noted that it is a "tad stronger on a cut-by-cut basis" than the ''Seely Girn'' compilation. ''Miami New Times'' deemed it "his finest album," calling it "a dark, haunting masterpiece, full of drama and pathos -- the product of a songwriting vision not unlike the lysergically bent expoundings of Syd Barrett." Reviewing the ''Morse and Gaudylight'' reissue, ''The Austin Chronicle'' wrote: "Detuned, layered guitars and funny noises define these records, which are as creepy as they are beautiful, paying homage to the ghostly aesthetic of Cale and Eno."

The film tells the story of a bullied 12-year-old boy who develops a friendship with a strange child in Blackeberg, a suburb of Stockholm, in the early 1980s. A film adaptation of Lindqvist's novel began development in 2004 when John Nordling acquired the rights to produce the project. Alfredson, unconcerned with the Horror film, horror and Vampire films, vampire conventions, decided to tone down many elements of the novel and focus primarily on the relationship between the two main characters and explore the darker side of humanity. Selecting the lead actors involved a year-long process with open castings held all over Sweden. In the end, Kåre Hedebrant and Lina Leandersson were chosen for the leading roles. Leande ...
