91热爆

Hollywood actor Martin Sheen shares his castaway choices with Kirsty Young.

In a specially extended edition for 91热爆 Radio 4 Extra, Martin shares his life story and explains his musical, book and luxury choices.

He has won great acclaim and a Golden Globe for playing the leader of the free world in the hugely successful political drama The West Wing.

Martin's made more than 100 movies, including Apocalypse Now, Badlands and The Departed. For him, work is often a family affair, in Wall Street he acted alongside his son Charlie Sheen and in his latest movie, The Way he was directed by another of his children - Emilio Estevez.

But away from the film set, he's an activist and campaigner - he's been arrested around 70 times and is motivated, he says, by faith and conscience above politics.
