That's all I got. Hope it's right.  I've had a quartet burning a hole in my pocket for a couple of days now.

There's really supposed to be 5 on the list, but in keeping with the theme of quartets, I've removed the 4th one and then scrambled them.  Hehehehe, evil, evil grin.

We are indeed talking about a poem, a play, a film, and music. And the "Captain" is what you're looking for.
