The Movie Café - 25/11/2010

Janice Forsyth's weekly film programme. Janice talks to CONTROL director Anton Corbijn about his latest film, THE AMERICAN, which stars George Clooney as an assassin on the run and hiding out in the Italian mountains. Film critic Nigel Floyd reviews MACHETE, a gory revenge movie which draws on 70s exploitation movies and was borne out of a spoof trailer made to promote Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's Grindhouse project. Two Stieg Larsson aficionados review the third of the Swedish adaptations of Larsson's Millennium trilogy, THE GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNET'S NEST. As Tony Scott's UNSTOPPABLE - the true story of a runaway train carrying toxic chemicals - comes to cinemas, starring Denzel Washington and Chris Pine, critic Graeme Virtue asks if it's Tony Scott himself who should be stopped from making forgettable action thrillers. Plus a look ahead to the Cromarty Film Festival.
