Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg talk about their new movie Bridge of Spies and Spielberg also revisits Hook saying he wishes he’d made it as a musical.   Singer-songwriter Julia Holter from the USA, writer of ‘exceptional pop built on avant-garde foundations’, talks about her new album.   The Grandfather of Ethiopian Jazz, Mulatu Astatke, looks back and remembers how a love of music derailed his parents’ dream of his aeronautical engineering career.  The Oscar-winning actress Cate Blanchett discusses sexuality on screen and her new lesbian romance movie Carol.   Documentary director Kim Longinotto talks about her inspiring new film Dreamcatcher about an ex-prostitute working to help abused young women in Chicago.  And James Bond producer Barbara Broccoli releases a new film, Radiator, costing less than 1% of Spectre and talks about the importance of new voices in cinema.
