The Film Programme

Available for over a year

With Francine Stock. Ryan Gosling discusses his directorial debut Lost River, which was met with a mixture of cheers and jeers at its Cannes premiere. The head of BBC Films, Christine Langan, looks back at its 25 years history, including such hits as Billy Elliot, Philomena, and Fish Tank, and laments the lack of original stories that land on her desk. One of Britain's few winners at this year's Oscars, hair and make-up artist Frances Hannon, talks about her award-winning moustaches and wigs for The Grand Budapest Hotel. Ruben Ostlund, the director of Force Majeure, a black comedy about a family holiday from hell, reveals why he would like his film to help increase the divorce rate.
