Marjane Satrapi

Available for over a year

With Antonia Quirke Persepolis director Marjane Satrapi talks about Radioactive, her biopic of Marie Curie, and explains why she also wanted to recognise the work of Marie's husband Pierre. The sun never sets in the Midnight Sun Film Festival in Lapland, but like many festivals, this year it had to go online. Caitlin Benedict and Antonia Quirke revisit last year's festival and talk to programme manager Milja Mikkola about the painful decision not to hold the festival in the small town of Sodankyla for the first time in over 30 years. The Film Club choice of a movie to stream this week is the Ealing comedy Kind Hearts And Coronets, in which Denis Price tries to kill 8 members of an aristocratic family, all played by Alec Guinness. Legendary cinematographer Douglas Slocombe explains how he managed to film six Alec Guinesses in one shot.
