The Film Programme - Rosamund Pike, Barry Jenkins

With Antonia Quirke.

Rosamund Pike reveals the lengths she went to in order to play the legendary war reporter Marie Colvin in A Private War.

Oscar winning director Barry Jenkins discusses If Beale Street Could Talk, his follow-up to Moonlight and explains what the two films have in common.

Neil Brand recounts the fight over war movie Battle Of Britain, when Sir William Walton's score was replaced at the last minute. And how he only found out when he read it in a newspaper.

On the podcast, historian Ian Christie tells us about Robert Paul, the film pioneer who made Muswell Hill the centre of the movie universe for a brief moment.
