Also, Basic Instinct 2 star David Morrissey shares his Viewing Notes. Screenshot is Radio 4's guide through the ever-expanding universe of the moving image.

“In The Cut” is the most maligned film from this year's Oscar darling Campion. A dreamy paranoid feminist subversion of the erotic crime thriller full of edgy unique performances from all its stars. Directed by Jane Campion. Screenplay by Jane Campion & Susanna Moore. Starring Meg Ryan, Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Jason-Leigh, Kevin Bacon, Nick Damici, Patrice O'Neal & Sharrieff Pugh How is the world wrong about In The Cut From Bryan Connolly: Nobody liked this when it came out, turned off by America's darling Meg Ryan getting down and dirty. She gives a raw performance here that is hands down one of her best. Ruffalo has never been better, fully immersed as a complex cop. Difficult characters in a difficult film. I love it.

Fiction & arts writer Sue Rainsford, discusses representations of violence in literature & shares some books that have really impressed her this past year.

Susanna Moore is the author of the novels The Life of Objects, The Big Girls, One Last Look, In the Cut, Sleeping Beauties, The Whiteness of Bones, and My Old Sweetheart, and two books of nonfiction, Light Years: A Girlhood in Hawai'i and I Myself Have Seen It: The Myth of Hawai'i.

Marcus Greville from Unity Books, Wellington, reviews Miss Aluminium by Susanna Moore. Published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson Ltd. In 1963 after the death of her mother, seventeen-year-old Susanna Moore leaves her home in Hawai'i with no money and no belongings to live with her Irish grandmother in Philadelphia. She soon receives four trunks of expensive clothes from a concerned family friend, allowing her to assume the first of many disguises needed to find her way as a model, script reader and writer. Moore gives us a sardonic, often humorous portrait of Hollywood in the seventies, and of a young woman's hard-won arrival at self-hood.
In this week's Book Club podcast, my guest is the writer Susanna Moore.

She talks about writing the past, sexual violence, the rage that inspired In The Cut, the young Roman Polanski - and why clothes matter.

Author and critic Marion Winik opens our eyes to some fresh fiction -- like a new view of Hampden from Baltimore’s own Ann Tyler. Winik also recommends “Miss Aluminum”, a revealing memoir of 1970s Hollywood by Susanna Moore, who often--but not always--looked more glamorous than she felt.

Has anyone written a great social media novel yet? Is Twitter destroying our ability to read novels in the first place? How worried should we be about bookstagrammers? Why are you listening to this podcast instead of reading a book? What even is the point of podcasting?? On this month’s show we’re asking these not at all panicked questions and talking about social media in literature. As usual, our theme has been inspired by our guest: Kiley Reid dropped by the studio to talk about her debut novel Such a Fun Age, a fun, sharp story about babysitting, racial politics, class and privilege. Listen in to hear our interview with Kiley, our thoughts about the theme of social media in literature, plus all the usual recommendations. Thankfully, we recorded with Kiley before Covid-19 travel restrictions came into play, and before the virus spread, so if you want an hour to escape into a time before reality got turned around then open your mind, ignore twitter - at least for the next hour - and focus all your attention on Literary Friction.

Available from Audible.co.uk (https://adbl.co/2ml4yX2) Living alone in New York, Frannie teaches creative writing to a motley bunch of students, and secretly compiles a dictionary of street slang: virginia, n., vagina; snapper, n., vagina; brasole, n., vagina. One evening at a bar, she stumbles upon a man, his face in shadow, a tattoo on his wrist, a woman kneeling between his legs. A week later a detective shows up at her door. The woman's body has been discovered in the park across the street. Soon Frannie is propelled into a sexual liaison that tests the limits of her safety and desires, as she begins a terrifying descent into the dark places that reside deep within her.
Across more than 50 years of essays, novels, screenplays, and criticism, Joan Didion has been our premier chronicler of the ebb and flow of America’s cultural and political tides with observations on her personal – and our own – upheavals, downturns, life changes, and states of mind. In the intimate, extraordinary documentary JOAN DIDION: THE CENTER WILL NOT HOLD, actor and director Griffin Dunne unearths a treasure trove of archival footage and talks at length to his “Aunt Joan” about the eras she covered and the eventful life she’s lived, including partying with Janis Joplin in a house full of L.A. rockers; hanging in a recording studio with Jim Morrison; and cooking dinner for one of Charles Manson’s women for a magazine story. Didion guides us through the sleek literati scene of New York in the 1950s and early ’60s, when she wrote for Vogue; her return to her home state of California for two turbulent decades; the writing of her seminal books, including Slouching Towards Bethlehem, Play It as It Lays, A Book of Common Prayer, and The White Album; her film scripts, including The Panic in Needle Park; her view of 1980s and ’90s political personalities; and the meeting of minds that was her long marriage to writer John Gregory Dunne. She reflects on writing about her reckoning with grief after Dunne’s death, in The Year of Magical Thinking (winner of the National Book Award for Nonfiction), and the death of their daughter Quintana Roo, in Blue Nights. With commentary from friends and collaborators including Vanessa Redgrave, Harrison Ford, Anna Wintour, David Hare, Calvin Trillin, Hilton Als, and Susanna Moore, the most crucial voice belongs to Didion, one of the most influential American writers alive today. Director Griffin Dunne (American Werewolf in London, After Hours) joins us for a conversation on "Aunt Joan" and her fiercely personal body of remarkable body of fiction and non-fiction.

In our first book vs. movie episode, we discuss Jane Campion's 2003 film In The Cut and how it compares to Susanna Moore's original erotic thriller, published in 1995. Does Meg Ryan's flat, brown hair obscure her image as America's innocent sweetheart? Is Jennifer Jason Leigh her sister or friend? Why are all the men in the movie so obsessed with marriage? Does it matter that we spoil the killer's identity? All will be revealed in Episode 6! Literary publicist and all-around bibliophile David Archer joins Bonnie and Maude for the discussion and treats us with an impeccable Meg Ryan impersonation.
This week: Skateboarding legend Tony Hawk does some extreme couchsurfing… “Beasts of the Southern Wild” director Benh Zeitlin on axe-painting… Controversy-courting essayist Katie Roiphe offers advice… author Susanna Moore dines in wartime Berlin… Brendan learns the difference between jerks and Ethels… and SF band Thao & The Get Down Stay Down give us a tune that gets you up, keep you up. Plus the history of a New-Wave Band Aid, the science of Xmas music, and sherry wine: it’s not just for Grandmas anymore.
Susanna Moore is interested in the things her characters don't know. Her new novel is a story of innocence and dread.
