Ran, Long Day's Journey into Night, Camping, 6 Facets of Light, Museum of Brands
The week's cultural highlights, including Kurosawa's film Ran, Long Day's Journey into Night at Bristol Old Vic, Julia Davis's TV comedy Camping and Ann Wroe's 6 Facets of Light.
Akira Kurosawa's Ran,originally released in 1985, was - at the time - the most expensive Japanese film ever made. It won awards galore and is considered a classic. Is it still as breathtaking as on first release?
Eugene O'Neill's play Long Day's Journey Into Night is at Bristol's Old Vic starring Jeremy Irons and Lesly Manville. It's directed by Richard Eyre.
Julia Davis' newest TV comedy Camping follows several couples (with varying degrees of dysfunction in their relationships) as they spend a ghastly holiday under canvas
Ann Wroe's book 6 Facets of Light is a series of meditations on the essential nature of light.
The Museum of Brands offers a peculiar and unique view of 200 years of British society through packaging, design, toys, magazines and other items. Formerly in Gloucester, it has now moved to a new location in London
Tom Sutcliffe's guests are Andrea Rose, Geoffrey Durham and Maev Kennedy. The producer is Oliver Jones.
