Edith Bowman explores the finest music written for the screen, from epic orchestral themes to modern soundtrack favourites. This week, Edith speaks to Harry Gregson-Williams about his latest score to Ridley Scott's "The Dog Stars". We'll also be joined by composer Chris Roe, who'll be taking us through his score to the dark comedy film "Bad Apples" on Harmonising Hollywood. And actor Alan Cumming gives his ‘Pick of the Flicks’ – the score to the revolutionary 1960’s slasher directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Also, expect the usual blend of timeless film scores and brand new soundtrack choices.
