Regular Critics, Ian Hoey & Paul Gallagher will share their thoughts on it and on this week's other big cinema releases: including Paul Weitz's bittersweet indie comedy Grandma, starring the great Lily Tomlin as a testy septuagenarian lesbian trying to rustle up $600 for her teenage granddaughter's abortion(!) They will also discuss 'Peggy Guggenheim: Art Addict' - a portrait of a patron of the arts extraordinaire who transformed a modest fortune and impeccable taste into one of the premiere collections of twentieth century art.
Later in the show, writer Jennifer Morag Henderson discusses her new book, ' Josephine Tey - A Life' a biography of one of the great (Scottish) mystery writers of the twentieth century; at one point, she had plays on simultaneously in the West End in London and on Broadway, and even wrote for Hollywood - all from her home in the north of Scotland!
All that and Ol Blue Eyes is back! -the countdown to 'The Voice' Frank Sinatra's centenary birthday has begun!
