My Crazy Year: Mark Jenkin and Dexter Fletcher

My Crazy Year: Directors Mark Jenkin and Dexter Fletcher look back at their crazy year. Presented by Antonia Quirke.

With Antonia Quirke

Two directors look back at their crazy year. Mark Jenkin’s Bait has been described as a modern masterpiece. Shot in 16mm black and white on a hand-cranked camera, this tale of a Cornish fishing village has been an unlikely box office hit, and still played in cinemas in this country two months after its release.  Dexter Fletcher’s Rocketman, on the other hand, began life with a starry premiere at the Cannes Film Festival and was made not long after Fletcher was brought into complete filming on Bohemian Rhapsody, which won the best drama at the Golden Globes in January.

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