From multiplex to art house - Francine Stock talks to the man behind the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, Jerry Bruckheimer and probes him on the reasons for their perennial appeal.
There are interviews too with three of the directors behind this weekend's film releases - Emilio Estevez speaks about his movie The Way, staring his father Martin Sheen; Chad's Mahamat-Saleh Haroun explains why he's thrilled to follow his success with A Screaming Man at last year's Cannes festival with a place on this year's judging panel; and Joe Cornish comes into the studio to talk about his new British film Attack the Block.
Producer: Zahid Warley.
