Electra, Gone Girl, The Code, Howard Jacobson, Gothic Imagination
Kristin Scott Thomas in Electra at the Old Vic, David Fincher's film Gone Girl, Howard Jacobson's Booker-nominated J, Gothic Imagination at British Library, and 大象传媒4's The Code.
Kristin Scott Thomas plays the title role in Electra at The Old Vic. It's a millennia old play in a modern translation by Frank McGuinness and directed by Ian Rickson.
David Fincher's film version of Gillian Flynn's best seller Gone Girl stars Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike. Howard Jacobson's Booker-nominated novel J imagines a dystopian world where a Holocaust-type event might happen again.
Gothic Imagination at The British Library explores 250 years of a public predilection for horror and terror.
大象传媒4's new Australian drama The Code deals with a corrupt government dealing ruthlessly with cyber skulduggery.
Tom Sutcliffe's guests are Stephanie Merritt, Dea Birkett and Sarfraz Manzoor. The producer is Oliver Jones.
