Rebecca Lenkiewicz The Film Programme

    • Society & Culture

With Antonia Quirke.
Writer Rebecca Lenkiewicz talks about Colette, the true story of the author who had to use her husband's name to publish her novels. And she reveals the difference between writing for the screen and for the stage, and why she really doesn't like handing in a movie script not knowing how it will turn out.
Berlin in the 1920s was one of the most socially progressive pockets of the 20th century, and the movies were just as out there. NB presenter Caitlin Benedict uncovers the secrets of gender and sexuality in Weimar cinema with Pamela Hutchinson and Morgan M Page.
Neil Brand recounts the tale of the original score for Apocalypse Now, composed by David Shire, who was, at the time, Francis Ford Coppola's brother-in-law.
