Struggling Keys. Nielsen's relative isolation during his working years in Denmark helps to explain his early obscurity. But at the same time, that remoteness enhanced his originality. Such composers as Gustav Mahler and Richard Strauss, who were working in the late romantic tradition, projected their explosive forms out of subjective, often agonized emotion.

...parents that sex is everything. His principal occupation is making voyeuristic movies of sexual intercourse. The X blots out most of his underground work, however, leaving the film with hardly a shock at all. If the Danish government goes through with its de-censoring plans, audiences in Denmark might finally be able to see just what went on behind the X-if they care...
