PAN & The Program | BBC Film Reviews

10.15.2015 by Nicola Balkind //

Ben Foster plays Lance Armstrong in The Program, directed by Stephen Frears.

 

Saying you’re going to review PAN is a pun waiting to happen, isn’t it?

Today I’ll be gracing the BBC Radio Scotland airwaves on the Janice Forsyth Show with Edi Stark and Andrea Mullaney to review the week’s movie releases, which include:

  • PAN – a Peter Pan origin story directed by Joe Wright
  • The Program, starring Ben Foster – director Stephen Frears’ dramatic take on The Armstrong Lie, and
  • Hotel Transylvania 2 – the latest Sony animation for the Hallowe’en season.

Fancy listening in? You can tune in live from 2pm, or catch up later on iPlayer.
