This heartwarming docu-drama chronicles the relationship between Russian pairs figure skaters Sergei Grinkov and Ekaterina Gordeeva, whose chemistry on the ice earned them three World Championships and two Olympic Gold Medals, and whose off-ice relationship yielded a happy marriage and a beautiful daughter. Their bliss was shattered when, on November 20, 1995, Grinkov collapsed and died of a massive heart attack on the ice. Based on Gordeeva's eponymous memoir.

Songs for Drella is a concept album by Lou Reed and John Cale, both formerly of The Velvet Underground, and is dedicated to the memory of Andy Warhol, their mentor, who had died unexpectedly in 1987. Drella was a nickname for Warhol coined by Warhol Superstar Ondine, a contraction of Dracula and Cinderella, used by Warhol's crowd. The song cycle focuses on Warhol's interpersonal relations and experiences, with songs falling roughly into three categories: Warhol's first-person perspective (which makes up the vast majority of the album), third-person narratives chronicling events and affairs, and first-person commentaries on Warhol by Reed and Cale themselves. The songs on the album are, to some extent, in chronological order.
