Episode notes

Dave Grohl talks about his role in Studio 666, about Foo Fighters moving into an Encino mansion steeped in grisly rock and roll history to record their much anticipated 10th album. Mark reviews Cyrano, Joe Wright’s adaptation of the play; The Duke, about Kempton Bunton, a 60 year old taxi driver who steals Goya's portrait of the Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery in London; Gangubai Kathiawadi, about a woman who becomes a powerful underworld figure; the re-release of The Godfather, about the ageing patriarch of an organised crime dynasty in postwar New York City who transfers control of his clandestine empire to his reluctant youngest son; and new horror Hellbender, about a lonely teenager who discovers her family's ties to witchcraft. Plus Simon and Mark talk through all the films on current release.
