Pop Screen is going all topical this week, eschewing our usual cult classics and reviewing a film released this year - so be warned, there are spoilers! It\'s Annette, an extraordinary, divisive musical by extraordinary, divisive director Leos Carax, with a full original score by extraord... you get the picture, it\'s Sparks, the score is by Sparks.
\\n
\\nJoin Graham and Mark as they examine this surprisingly linear but deeply eccentric film from the director of Holy Motors. Among other issues, you\'ll hear about the time when Rihanna was going to be in this movie, the other Sparks movie of 2021, the Mael brothers\' chances at the Oscars and the unexpected autobiographical elements that we also discussed when we last talked Carax. So - may we start?
