    cinema LUX cinema invisibile febbraio > maggio 2014 martedì ore 21.00 giovedì ore 18.30 The Killing - Linden, Holder e il caso Larsen The Killing serie tv - USA stagione 1 (2011) + stagione 2 (2012) 13 episodi + 13 episodi Seattle. Una giovane ragazza, Rosie Larsen, viene uccisa. La detective Sarah Linden, nel suo ultimo giorno di lavoro alla omicidi, si ritrova per le mani un caso complicato che non si sente di lasciare al nuovo collega Stephen Holder, incaricato di sostituirla. Nei 26 giorni delle indagini (e nei 26 episodi dell'avvincente serie tv) la città mostra insospettate zone d'ombra: truci rivelazioni e insinuanti sospetti rimbalzano su tutto il contesto cittadino, lacerano la famiglia Larsen (memorabile lo struggimento progressivo di padre, madre e zia) e sconvolgono l'intera comunità non trascurando politici, insegnanti, imprenditori, responsabili di polizia... The Killing vive di atmosfere tese e incombenti e di un ritmo pacato, dal passo implacabile e animato dai continui contraccolpi dell'investigazione, dall'affollarsi di protagonisti saturi di ambiguità con responsabilità sempre più difficili da dissipare. Seattle, con il suo grigiore morale e la sua fitta trama di pioggia, accompagna un'indagine di sofferto coinvolgimento emotivo per il pubblico e per i due detective: lei taciturna e introversa, “incapsulata” nei suoi sgraziati maglioni di lana grossa; lui, dal fascino tenebroso, con un passato di marginalità sociale e un presente tutt’altro che rassicurante. Il tempo dell'indagine lento e prolungato di The Killing sa avvincere e crescere in partecipazione ed angoscia. Linden e Holder (sempre i cognomi nella narrazione!) faticheranno a dipanare il caso e i propri rapporti interpersonali, ma l'alchimia tra una regia impeccabile e un calibrato intreccio sa tenere sempre alta la tensione; fino alla sconvolgente soluzione del giallo, in cui alla beffa del destino, che esalta il cinismo dei singoli e scardina ogni acquiescenza familiare, può far da contraltare solo la toccante compassione per la tragica fine di Rosie.

It is at the Autobau, located in Romanshorn, Switzerland. On the southern shore of Lake Constance, the Autobau is easily accessible by train (it is located right next to the Romanshorn main train station) and is close to Zurich. It is also easily reached via lake steamer from www.porscheroadandrace.com Friedrichshafen Germany.

There are guided tours available with docents who can explain the cars. It is also open to the general public twice a week for self- tours. Frequently it is used for private events, weddings, business meetings etc, more information as to times and schedules is available at www.autobau.ch www.porscheroadandrace.com Small test track in front of Autobau, with the Autobau Factory in the background The collection is housed in an old alcohol tank storage facility in Romanshorn which was built at the turn of the 20th century, but closed in 1996.

That is, unless you are Ron Capps and the NAPA AUTO PARTS team led by crew chief Rahn Tobler and assistant Eric Lane who opened the 2016 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series season by winning the Funny Car title to begin a special year that commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Funny Car. Their 2016 Dodge Charger R/T was the only one of seven DSR entries to advance past the second round of Mello Yello eliminations and they went all the way. Capps and the NAPA team were dominant all weekend during the first of 24 national events with seven of their eight runs in the 3- second range including all four in qualifying that helped the team earn the No. 2 spot. “I have the best team in the business, and they gave me a great racecar,” he said. “All four runs in the 3s in qualifying, I don’t think anyone else did that. I knew we had a good racecar. Tobler and I have grown so much together. It’s like a marriage. He really keeps me in line on race day. We had a heckuva day.” And it was a banner weekend for NAPA Racing.
