Ken Loach on Jimmy's Hall, Nashville revisited, Emmanuelle Seigner on Polanski.

Ken Loach on his new political drama Jimmy's Hall, Robert Altman's Nashville revisited, Emmanuelle Seigner describes working with husband Roman Polanski on Venus in Fur.

With Antonia Quirke.

Ken Loach talks about his latest political drama Jimmy's Hall, set after the partition of Ireland when pragmatism and idealism clashed, often violently.

Emmanuelle Seigner describes working with husband Roman Polanski on Venus In Fur about the sado-masochistic relationship between an actress and a director. She explains why the film is definitely not autobiographical.

Robert Altman's classic state-of-the-nation address, Nashville, is released on DVD for the first time, almost 40 years since it was released in cinemas. The film's star Keith Carradine reveals why actors never knew when they were actually on camera and Woman In Black director James Watkins discusses the movie's influence on his career.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
