Cinema: The Comeback


Listen Later

With Antonia Quirke.

As cinemas are set to re-open on May 17th, Antonia Quirke visits The Uckfield Picture House that has been run by the same family for over six decades. She talks to its owner Kevin Markwick about a year that has seen his business shut for 70% of the time, and discovers why he is optimistic about the future.

Sound Of Metal director Darius Marder reveals the reasons why he distorted the hearing of his star Riz Ahmed with the help of a ear piece and an app.

Director Chloe Zhao discusses the influence of John Wayne on her Oscar winner Nomadland.

If you are going to your local cinema on May 17th, we'd like to hear about your experience. You can write or record your thoughts and email them to [email protected]
