Francine Stock talks to director Michael Winterbottom about his Jim Thompson adaptation The Killer Inside Me, which has provoked angry reactions amongst some audiences, because of its depiction of violence against women. The winner of the top prize, the Palme D'Or, at this year's Cannes Film Festival, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, reveals his plans for a "cinema of the mind". Matthew Sweet picks another plum from the hundreds of listeners' suggestions of neglected British classics. Pasquale Iannone waxes lyrical about a classic of the Czech New Wave, Diamonds Of The Night, and Colin Shindler sends a despatch from May 1960.
