It looks like a deep and mossy cave, but it is no more than a pore on the human skin, magnified 3,500 times. And what appears to be a coral reef is in fact the tip of the tongue.

The camera watches the movement of the vocal chords; peers down glowing, breathing corridors into the depths of the lungs; and shows us the vibration of tiny bones within the ear so that we actually see sounds being heard. Man's own anatomy has intrigued him through the ages. But now, remarkable camera techniques reveal a startling perspective on how we are made.

For the next two weeks BBC2 highlights the work of Raoul Walsh - director of many of the greatest action films of the 1930s and 1940s.

Raoul Walsh worked with most of the famous stars of the period, including Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, George Raft, Edward G. Robinson, Errol Flynn, and gave John Wayne his first acting part - and his screen name. In this programme he reminisces about his career - his debut as an actor in Birth of a Nation, his early silent films and his big hits of the 1940s, including some of the best gangster pictures in Hollywood history. With excerpts from What Price Glory, The Big Trail, The Roaring Twenties, High Sierra, They Died With Their Boots On, Desperate Journey, Gentleman Jim , Northern Pursuit, Objective, Burma!, White Heat, The Bowery, Cockeyed World and The Strawberry Blonde.
