BBC Radio Scotland - The Movie Café, 18/11/2010

Featuring Harry Potter, the Disability Film Festival and a Palme d'Or-winning director.

Featuring Harry Potter, the Disability Film Festival and a Palme d'Or-winning director on how his film has changed cinema culture in Thailand.

Janice is joined by two young Harry Potter fans to hear their thoughts on the penultimate film. Are they sad that the story's nearing its end? And what does their mum think about the scarier parts of the film - is it really suitable for younger children?

The UK's first ever Disability Film Festival runs this year - Curator Paul Darke tells Janice why it's so important to boost the profile of disabled people on the silver screen.

The Director behind this year's Palme D'Or winner at Cannes, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, talks to Gail Tolley about his film and the response it's provoked at home in Thailand.

"Chico and Rita" tells the story of two musicians in 1940s Havana. Is the role of the soundtrack more prolific in a film told through animation?

And an interview with Holly Lubbock, about her documentary film chronicling the journey of a South African High School choir to their performance at an International Arts Festival in England.

Plus, our DVD picks of the week and how some of cinema's most iconic soundtracks were born, as we look in to the Radio Scotland Zones.


Produced by Rich Preston.
