This week we watched the 2008 no-worries romp Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, starring Amy Adams and Frances McDormand, plus a bunch of fantastic supporting actors. It was an easy-breezy hour and a half, and worth a rewatch if you haven’t seen it in a while.
This week, Andrew Lanham co-writer of The Glass Castle, discusses adapting the New York Times Best Seller memoir of the same name followed by Life of Pi and Finding Neverland writer David Magee discusses writing for imaginative worlds, and using language to translate stories to the screen.

If you've seen an episode of the hit BBC detective show “Luther” starring Idris Elba, then you've heard the powerful music of Paul Englishby. Paul is also the composer for “The Musketeers”, another hit BBC television series, and has written music for several productions of the Royal Shakespeare Company, as well as for such movies as “Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day” and the 2009 Oscar-nominated film, “An Education”. Music brings movies and television shows to life, and in the skilled craftsmanship of a master composer, music can also add a powerful layer of commentary on the stories presented on the screen. Paul Englishby displays a remarkable versatility in the dazzling array of genres he works in and creates. After you listen to this remarkable interview, I promise you'll never watch a movie or TV show the same way again!

Miss Pettigrew (Frances McDormand) is in a tight spot at the beginning of this smartly realized homage to 1930's screwball comedies. She's out of work and a place to live. Through a cunning move, she manages to score a new client (she's a governess) and it happens to Delysia Lafosse, played breathlessly by Amy Adams. Delysia knows a lot of men, and the following 24 hours are a whirlwind of romance for all players involved. This polished confection known as 'Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day' comes recommended by Kristy, a frequent guest on In the Queue. Does the acting measure up to Andrew's expectations? Will Phil find it to be on par with a TV movie? Listen up! And hear for yourself!
