“The first movie I saw where you waited for the song was Jungle Book” - Quentin Tarantino

Quentin Tarantino discusses film soundtracks and the influence of Disney’s The Jungle Book, on him as a child at the cinema with his dad.
  
Agnetha Faltskog from Abba is back to tell us about her new album.  And the Spanish director Pedro Almodovar tells us about his new plane sex satire “I’m so Excited” featuring an outrageous set piece to the Pointer Sisters’ classic I’m So Excited.  There’s also a new take on ancient Azeri music and artwork in coconut oil from Ellen Gallagher.

At the movies we get a first look at The Great Gatsby, opening in New York, talk to Brit actor Riz Ahmed and celebrate 100 years of Indian cinema.
