Edith Bowman and Anna Bogutskaya are joined by Aubrey Plaza, who talks about her new film Black Bear, in which she plays a filmmaker at a creative impasse seeking solace at a rural retreat. Plus your essential streaming reviews including the new Neil Marshall film The Reckoning, about a young widow haunted by the recent suicide of her husband, The Sound of Scars, a documentary about the influential metal band Life of Agony, Emerald Fennell’s Promising Young Woman and Gillian Wallace Horvat’s I Blame Society, in which a filmmaker realises that the skill set to make a movie is the same to commit the perfect murder. Our rotating chart this week is from the week our presenter Edith Bowman joined BBC Radio 1 in 2003. Plus Edith and Anna will be looking back at the BAFTAs. They also talk you through the best and worst films on subscription-free TV next week, and recommend a home entertainment purchase in DVD of the Week. 00:09:10 Celebrating Cinema
