It鈥檚 50 years since The Godfather was released, the first of three films that have had a huge impact in their own right and on so much that followed them, from The Sopranos to The Simpsons.

Our Generation is a new play by Alecky Blythe, the author of London Road, whose particular technique of verbatim theatre this time involved following a group of young people in the secondary school years and just beyond for five years. The snapshot of exams, phones, relationships, dreams and aspirations that鈥檚 resulted is at the National Theatre and then Chichester. It鈥檚 reviewed by poet Anthony Anaxagorou and critic Susannah Clapp.

Paul Dano discusses his role as The Riddler in new film The Batman, and reflects on the particular quality shared by many of the characters he has played.

And Anthony Anaxagorou and fellow poet Hannah Lowe, who鈥檚 just won the Costa Book of the Year Award for her collection The Kids, each recommend a new poetry collection.
