Director Tom Hooper on The Danish Girl, his new film about early gender-reassignment.
The Danish Girl director Tom Hooper (The Kings Speech) talks about his new film about early gender-reassignment. Why are African accents in films so terrible? A new guide for actors seeks to put it right. Architect David Adjaye previews the soon to be opening Smithsonian Museum Of African American History and Culture, in Washington DC. Author Colm Toibin tells us about life in Spain before fame.
Songwriter Burt Bacharach discusses falling out with his partner Hal David. Director David O Russell shares some detail about how he uses music in film scenes. We hear about a British science project making an album of new songs about body parts, including one about the appendix. Israeli author Dorit Rabinyan responds as her prize-winning novel about a love affair between an Arab and an Israeli is taken off the school curriculum.
