Episode description

Reviewed this week: The Jungle Book, a remake of the classic animation in CGI so lavish you could prick your paw on its prickly pears; last year's Palme d'Or winner, immigration drama Dheepan; and Akira Kurosawa's epic King Lear adaptation Ran.PLUS: Our despair at news of the soulless-sounding Emoji film is lifted by Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's bizarre apology video, and we showcase Idris Elba's musical contribution to The Jungle Book - sadly absent from the final cut.
