BBC Radio Scotland - The Movie Café, 12/07/2012

Lord Puttnam on Chariots of Fire, Channing Tatum on Magic Mike, and summer blockbusters.

Lord Puttnam reminisces about the making of Chariots of Fire and Channing Tatum bares all as Magic Mike, plus the year's summer blockbusters, including Ice Age: Continental Drift.

Janice Forsyth is joined by reviewers Eddie Harrison and Jamie Dunn. 

As the Oscar winning epic Chariots of Fire gets re-released in the run up to the Olympic Games, Janice reminisces about the making of the film with its producer and director, Lord Puttnam and Hugh Hudson. Lord Puttnam affectionately explores the character of the Flying Scotsman, Eric Lidell, even seeing some comparisons with our current sporting hero, Andy Murray. 

The directors of Ice Age: Continental Drift explain the challenges of keeping this extremely successful franchise fresh.

The Movie Café takes a whistle stop tour of this year's summer blockbusters, including the 4th instalment of Ice Age. Given the summer we're having, the cinema is the ideal place to be, so which films are must-sees? 

And Channing Tatum talks stripping off and baring all as Magic Mike.
