Paddington; Xavier Dolan; Thelma Schoonmaker

Francine Stock meets the men who brought Paddington to the big screen, and Thelma Schoonmaker talks about the restoration of The Tales of Hoffmann.

With Francine Stock.

The men who brought Paddington to the big screen, producer David Heyman and director Paul King, reveal why it took seven years to turn the bear from darkest Peru into a movie star.

Thelma Schoonmaker, the Oscar winning editor of Raging Bull and The Wolf Of Wall Street, talks about the restoration of The Tales Of Hoffmann, written and directed by her late husband Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger.

Xavier Dolan has made five films in five years, the latest of which, Mommy, won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival last year, and he's only 25. The Canadian wunderkind tells Francine that he's feeling very tired, and that his next movie will have to wait, for a few months.
