Will The Nice Guys Ever Be The Nice Gals?

The Film Programme

Available for over a year

With Francine Stock. Francine asks Shane Black, the creator of the Lethal Weapon series, why buddy movies tend to be about men and whether The Nice Guys will ever be The Nice Gals. Director Louise Osmond and producer Rebecca O'Brien talk about their seemingly irreverent documentary on Ken Loach - Versus, and reveal how the radical director once stood as a Conservative candidate, albeit at a school election. Two independent cinema owners, Alistair Till and Kevin Markwick, tell us how they plan to survive a summer of sport. And why they are both praying for rain.
