Love in the Movies

The Film Programme

Available for over a year

Antonia Quirke presents a valentine to the cinema in a special edition about love in the movies. She talks to Terence Stamp, once described as the most beautiful man in the world, about what it was like to be loved from afar by millions of strangers. And she hears from Sir Richard Eyre who explains why he believes romantic comedy The Philadelphia Story is a perfect movie, and from award-winning documentary maker Kim Longinotto about Love Is All, her evocative compilation of love scenes from over a hundred years of British film history. Sharing the love are critics Jason Solomons and Angie Errigo, who reveal if they ever fell in love with someone because they reminded them of a movie star.
