Nicola Meighan sits in for Janice Forsyth and reviews King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.

Nicola Meighan sits in for Janice Forsyth with reviews of Guy Ritchie's King Arthur: Legend of the Sword and Colossal.

It's Film Day: Nicola Meighan will discuss acclaimed filmmaker Guy Ritchie's new epic fantasy action adventure "King Arthur: Legend of the Sword." Starring Charlie Hunnam in the title role, the film is an iconoclastic take on the classic Excalibur myth, tracing Arthur's journey from the streets to the throne!

Regular Critics, Paul Gallagher & Graeme Virtue will share their thoughts on it, and on this week's other big cinema releases: including, "Colossal" - a indie hipster romantic comedy/monster movie mash-up, starring Anne Hathaway...

And a new theatrical reissue of Fellini's classic Oscar-winning weepie, La Strada! 

Later in the show, we'll hear from music writer, presenter and author, David Hepworth, discussing his new book Uncommon People: The Rise and Fall of the Rock Stars - lively study of rock's greatest stars, from Little Richard to Kurt Cobain, Hollywood acting legend Woody Harrelson discusses his directorial debut Lost In London and, as The Cannes Film Festival 2017 is underway - we'll have a live report from the South of France - with all you need to know about this year's hottest films, as well as the latest news and gossip.. 

All that and much more, from two o'clock on Thursday, here on BBC Radio Scotland.
