Paddington Bear is the hero the world needs right now, and he's back filling cinema screens with marmalade and joy from Friday 10th November. On this edition of the Curzon Film Podcast we speak to one of the lead actors, Hugh Bonneville, about the lovable bear from darkest Peru, what he has come to symbolise in the post-Brexit age, and what fun Paddington 2 is going to be for kids and adults alike. Also, discussing the film this week are the podcast producer Jake Cunningham, Dr. Irene Musumeci Klein and Ryan Hewitt. Produced and edited by Jake Cunningham Music supplied by incompetech.com

This week we had the absolute pleasure of talking to both Willem Dafoe and Sean Baker, the star and the director of The Florida Project, one of the year's most unexpected cinematic delights. Baker's direction flirts with fantasy and realism to create a potent mix of heart-warming and heart-breaking scenes that introduce at least two previously unseen acting talents in Dafoe's co-stars, Brooklyn Prince and Bria Vinaite. Autumn is well and truly here in the UK, but The Florida Project brings a little of that Sunshine State warmth to November. Produced and edited by Jake Cunningham Music supplied by incompetech.com

We're so excited to bring you not one, but two interviews from the team behind one of the most staggering films of the year, 'The Killing of a Sacred Deer'. After decontsructing modern romance with the scalpel sharp 'The Lobster', director Yorgos Lanthimos returns with this stark update of the Greek tragedy of Iphigenia. We spoke to the director about the film, as well as actor Barry Keoghan, who, riding the high of starring in Christopher Nolan's 'Dunkirk' transforms here and steals the show as the nightmarish Martin.

To celebrate the launch of the London Film Festival, we were lucky enough to speak to Kate Taylor about her role as one of the festival's programmers. Featuring 243 films from 67 countries, LFF is one of the world's largest film festivals and boasts a remarkable programme; ranging from the biggest awards contenders to unique international films, which rarely get the chance to be seen on a big screen. Talking to Kate about the process of selecting those films is Sam Howlett. Produced by Jake Cunningham Edited by Sam Howlett & Jake Cunningham Music supplied by incompetech.com

In this episode of the Curzon Film Podcast, we chat about Peter Mackie Burns' feature debut Daphe, starring Emily Beecham as a thirty-something Londoner who, after witnessing a traumatic event, comes to an emotional crossroads in her life. A welcoming but still raw portrait of city life that sobers as much as it warms, Daphne is in cinemas now and playing on demand on Curzon Home Cinema.

We're lucky enough to sit down with the great Stellan Skarsgård to talk about his work, including his new role in Janus Metz' smashing tennis drama Borg vs McEnroe. Metz' film serves up two remarkable performances, in Sverrir Gudnason's Bjorn Borg and Shia LaBeouf's John McEnroe, with a nary a fault between them. As well as stellar supporting performances from Skarsgård and Tuva Novotny. A story of passion, rage, respect and redemption, Metz has managed to craft arguably the first great film about the sport. Discussing the film are Sam Howlett and Jake Cunningham Produced and edited by Jake Cunningham Music by incompetech.com
