With Antonia Quirke Ben Affleck discusses the parallels between Bruce Wayne and Donald Trump in his super-hero movie Batman V Superman. Antonia visits one of the few remaining video shops in this country, 20th Century Flicks in Bristol, which has an eleven seater cinema where you can watch one of their 19,000 films. Alan Clarke, the controversial director of Scum, The Firm and Rita, Sue and Bob Too, is remembered by writer David Leland and actor Phil Davis who explains why he is a cult hero of British cinema and television. Director Pablo Larrain discusses his award-winning drama The Club about a safe-house for disgraced priests, where neighbours are unaware of their crimes, until one of their victims turns up.
