The Roses and Mary, Queen of Rock
Director Jay Roach (Meet the Parents) and screenwriter Tony McNamara (The Favourite) talk about new film The Roses, starring Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch.
Recently- released black comedy The Roses stars Olivia Coleman and Benedict Cumberbatch as a seemingly perfect couple whose marriage starts to unravel in spectacular fashion. The film is a bold reimagining of the 1989 classic movie The War of the Roses, with Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner, and this time has a thoroughly modern edge. Reporter Catrina Rose talks to director Jay Roach and screenwriter Tony McNamara.
And Mary, Queen of Rock is a modern musical re-versioning of the life of Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots, which is being performed tonight at the Outwith music and arts festival in Dunfermline. Writers and stars of the show Mhairi McCall and Cal Ferguson join Len.
