This week Jason Solomons meets the master of French animation, Sylvain Chomet, best known for Belleville Rendez-Vous. Chomet's The Illusionist, an animated reinvention of Jacques Tati's classic, opened this year's Edinburgh film festival – and that's where Jason caught up with Chomet to discuss his love of Scotland, where he set the film.
Jason also meets Scandar Copti, co-director of Oscar-nominated Israeli film Ajami. Scandar discusses the real characters and situations that were the inspiration for this tale of low-level drug dealing and communal violence.
Finally, we review the week's big releases, including Rebecca Hall in Please Give, Ashton Kutcher in Killers, and Wild Grass from veteran director Alain Resnais.
