THE STORY OF FILM: AN ODYSSEY. CHAPTER 6.

The story of sex and melodrama in the movies of the 50s. The programme looks at James Dean, On the Waterfront and the glossy weepies of the period, but also travels to Egypt, India, China, Mexico, Britain and Japan, where movies were also full of rage and passion.

There are exclusive interviews with the people who worked with Satyajit Ray; with legendary actress Kyoko Kagawa, who starred in films by Akira Kurosawa and Yasujiro Ozu; and with the first great African director, Youssef Chahine.
