Paula Rego, Danny Huston, Ghetto Film School
Nick Willing's documentary about his mother, Paula Rego; Danny Huston on his stage debut at the Royal Court; the Ghetto film school comes to the UK.
The 82-year-old Portuguese artist Dame Paula Rego is the subject of a new Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Two documentary Secrets and Stories. The intimate portrait of the artist was made by her son, the film-maker Nick Willing, who discusses the very personal nature of the project.
Danny Huston makes his stage debut in a new play about the extraordinary life of Hollywood producer Robert Evans currently at the Royal Court, in London. Hailing from the famous film dynasty; he talks about coming to acting late at the age of 38, his memories of his father John Huston and working behind the scenes in the industry.
The Ghetto Film School was founded in 2000 by American social worker Joe Hall. He wanted to provide an opportunity for the young people he worked with to learn how to become filmmakers. Almost two decades on, the school is a flourishing project with branches in New York and Los Angeles, and a new partnership with a youth film project in the UK. Joe Hall and his UK film partner Hannah Barry discuss their desire to develop new generations of filmmakers.
