Film Weekly takes a dip in London River with Brenda Blethyn

This week on the podcast, Jason Solomons meets British actress Brenda Blethyn and French/Algerian director Rachid Bouchareb to discuss their film London River, which explores cultural clashes and personal tragedies in the aftermath of the 7/7 London bombings.

And, as we are well into the music festival season, Tania Harrison, film and music curator at Latitude, and Katrina Larkin from the Big Chill festival discuss how film is a growing part of the festival experience.

Xan Brooks is back from his stint dodging balls as a Wimbledon reporter and joins Jason to review some of the week's other big releases, including The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and Kristin Scott Thomas in Leaving.
