Lucy Fenwick Elliott speaks to Pierre Coffin, the director of Illumination's new film Minions & Monsters, as well as the voice of the Minions across the Despicable Me and Minions franchises.  Minions & Monsters introduces us to two new faces from an entirely new tribe of Minions, James and Henry. We meet them and their rambunctious friends in the distant past as they search far and wide for an evil master to serve.   Eventually they reach the 1920s, and wind up crashing a Hollywood film set. Their brief and accidental appearance on camera pays off – and before they know it, the Minions are bona-fide movie stars. But their 15 minutes of fame are soon up (they can't follow the script when all they speak is Minionese!) and they find themselves roaming the streets of Hollywood looking for a new, villainous purpose.  
 But James and Henry have a different plan: they have fallen in love with making movies, and want to make one of their own! With the help of a spell book taken from an evil sorcerer they used to work for, James and Henry summon some fearsome monsters to play the villains in their movie... Subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

Lucy Fenwick Elliott talks to director Peter Glanz about his new film, Savage House - in cinemas now.  Set against the backdrop of 18th century England, a massive Pox outbreak, and Jacobite Uprising - this is a timely and darkly satirical story of Sir Chauncey Savage (Richard E. Grant) and Lady Savage's (Claire Foy) blind pursuit of a better life.   It is not without a tinge of irony that their family name is the Savages, for this is a Savage House indeed. Filled with duels, decadence, and bloodshed, this is a madcap play on class and power. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts. Follow us on Spotify.

Lucy Fenwick Elliott talks to director Daniel Roher and actor Leo Woodall about their new film, Tuner. Now showing at Picturehouse Cinemas.  In Tuner, Academy Award-winning director Daniel Roher's first narrative feature, Leo Woodall stars as a gifted young piano tuner whose heightened sense of hearing draws the attention of criminals, who see his talents as useful for opening safes as for tuning Steinways.   With his once-promising musical career over, he works across New York with his mentor Harry Horowitz (Academy Award-winner Dustin Hoffman), encountering a range of characters, including composition student Ruthie (Havana Rose Liu), with whom he forges an unexpected connection. Niki's safecracking work threatens his budding romance with Ruthie and pulls him into increasingly dangerous territory.   Lending romance, drama, and the taut suspense of a heist thriller, TUNER also features performances from Tony Award-winner Tovah Feldshuh, Jean Reno, and Lior Raz.

Lucy Fenwick Elliott talks to director David Frankel about making his hugely anticpated new film, The Devil Wears Prada 2, in cinemas now.  The iconic – and iconically vicious – Editor-in-Chief of Runway magazine, Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep) is watching the publishing world fall apart.   As her retirement nears, she finds herself facing off against Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt), her one-time assistant turned high-powered executive, who's sitting on advertising dollars that Priestly desperately needs.   To bring Runway back to life, her right-hand man Nigel (Stanley Tucci) turns to an unlikely new hire: Miranda's other former assistant, the once-unfashionable Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway).  Twenty years after making their iconic turns as Miranda, Andy, Emily and Nigel, Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci return to the fashionable streets of New York City and the sleek offices of Runway Magazine in The Devil Wears Prada 2, the eagerly awaited sequel to the 2006 phenomenon.

Hope Hopkinson talks to writer-director Mark Jenkin about his new film, Rose of Nevada, starring George MacKay and Callum Turner.  ‘A Cornish modern classic. Eerie, heart-breaking, wonderful.' — Mark Kermode   When a fishing boat, the Rose of Nevada, lost with all hands 30 years ago, mysteriously reappears in the old harbour of a forgotten Cornish village, for those who remember, it's surely a sign.  The boat must go out to sea again and maybe then the luck of the devastated village will turn. Young father Nick (George MacKay) and enigmatic newcomer Liam (Callum Turner) join captain Murgey (Francis Magee), and they head to sea.   But when they return, satisfied with their haul, something is amiss — they've slipped back in time, and the villagers greet them as if they are the original crew.   Rose of Nevada is Cornish filmmaker Mark Jenkin's hotly anticipated and critically acclaimed follow-up to his BAFTA-award-winning first feature Bait (2019) and Enys Men (2022). Unique among British feature filmmakers for the analogue way in which he crafts his films, Jenkin once again serves as writer, director, director of photography, editor, sound designer and score composer.

Lucy Fenwick Elliott speaks to the team behind California Schemin' including director and co-star James McAvoy, as well as the films' stars Samuel Bottomley, Séamus McLean Ross, Rebekah Murrell and Lucy Halliday.  Based on an outrageous true story, CALIFORNIA SCHEMIN' is a wild ride through ambition, identity, and the high-stakes world of musical make-believe. In the early 2000's, Dundee rappers Gavin Bain and Billy Boyd were talented, hungry, but dismissed for sounding "too Scottish" to make it in hip hop. So they hatched an audacious plan: fake American identities, re-record their tracks with Californian accents, and hustle their way into the heart of the UK music industry as “Silibil N' Brains”—childhood friends of D12 and stars-in-the-making. To their shock, the plan works. Record deals, media buzz, and gigs with hip hop legends follow. But as their deception deepens, the pressure mounts and cracks begin to show. How long can you live the dream when it's built on a lie? With bold humour, raw emotion, and a defiant spirit, CALIFORNIA SCHEMIN' is a love letter to outsiders, underdogs, and the pursuit of fame—but asks, at what cost. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

Hope Hopkinson talks to director Francois Ozon, about his new film, The Stranger.  In 1930s Algeria, the apathetic Meursault (Benjamin Voisin) shows total indifference to life.  His emotional detachment leads to a murder, followed by a trial that scrutinises both the crime and his character.   Based on the monumental work of literature by Albert Camus,  Francois Ozon's The Stranger was selected for the official competition at the Venice Film Festival and UK-premiered at the London Film Festival.
