The Film Programme - Atonement Redux, The Rider

Antonia Quirke visits Redcar, where they are re-creating the famous five minute, one-shot scene from Atonement of British soldiers evacuating Dunkirk , but without the budget of a blockbuster movie. There she talks to extras who were in the original and to to director Richard DeDomenici who specialises in thrifty versions of famous movies and scenes. Seamus McGarvey, the cinematographer of the 2007 drama, explains how they got that famous shot.

Antonia talks to real life cowboy and rodeo champion Brady Jandreau about The Rider, a fictionalised account of his return to the sport after a serious head injury.
