With Antonia Quirke

Les Miserables is not another adaptation of Victor Hugo's novel, but an award-winning, autobiographical thriller set in a deprived estate in the Parisian suburbs. Ladj Ly's film made such an impact with French audiences that President Francois Macron asked to watch it. He was so shaken by what he saw on screen that he ordered his ministers to start finding solutions to the poor housing conditions in the French capital.

Tenet was the film that was going to save our cinemas. Or so it was hoped. Kevin Markwick, the owner of the Uckfield Picturehouse, tells us if that dream has become a reality.

In a new round of Pitch Battle, critic Ryan Gilbey pitches a remake of Withnail And I, which brings Uncle Monty centre stage. Industry insiders Clare Binns, Rowan Woods and Lizzie Francke decide whether or not to give the project the green light.
