    Gabriel Byrne, Dance First, How To Have Sex, Bottoms & The Killer

    This week, Simon sits down with the brilliant and always-interesting Gabriel Byrne for a philosophical chat about his turn as the legendary Irish playwright Samuel Beckett in ‘Dance First’, James Marsh’s experimental biographical drama. Their conversation is so good, there’s more of it in Take 2! Mark also gives his thoughts on the film, as well as reviewing ‘How To Have Sex’, cinematographer-turned director Molly Manning Walker's Cannes-winning feature debut about  a group of teen girls’ rite-of-passage first holiday to Malia; ‘Bottoms’, the Young Hollywood-packed second feature from director Emma Seligman, which follows two unpopular queer high school students as they start a fight club in a bid to have sex before graduation; and ‘The Killer’, David Fincher’s latest offering starring Michael Fassbender as a – you guessed it – contract killer with a growing conscience. Plus, Mark and Simon take us through the Box Office Top 10 and the film events worth catching in this week’s What’s On.

    Simon continues his discussion with Gabriel, which moves on to discussing the wider industry. Bonus reviews include ‘The Royal Hotel’, director Kitty Green’s second feature about two female backpackers – one of them played by the brilliant Julia Garner, the star of Green’s first film – who take jobs at a pub in the Australian Outback only to become disturbed by the male patrons; and ‘Nobody Has To Know’, a whimsical Scottish-set film about a woman who lies to the man she is taking care of after he suffers a stroke that they were secretly in love before his accident. One Frame Back is the best David Fincher films to celebrate the release of his latest film ‘The Killer’. Plus, Mark and Simon are on hand to help us decide what to watch, and what to avoid, this weekend.
