Edi Stark sits in

Edi Stark sits in for Janice Forsyth and reviews the week's big movie releases, including superhero film Ant-Man, plus singer Chastity Brown performs live.

Edi Stark reviews the weeks big movie releases with the help of critics Siobhan Synnot and Stephen Carty.

They take their magnifying glasses to Ant Man, the latest superhero in the Marvel film franchise, and we hear from director, Peyton Reed.

13 Minutes is the latest film from Oliver Hirschbiegel who directed Downfall, the acclaimed film about the last days of Hitler in the Berlin bunker. His new film tells the remarkable story of the ordinary German who almost managed to assassinate Hitler in 1939. Oliver Hirschbiegel tells us why he made it.

And True Story is follows the relationship between a murderer and the journalist whose identity he stole. It's based on real events but opens up questions of truth and honesty.

But it's not all movies.

American singer-songwriter, Chastity Brown, performs for us live.

And 25 years after he gigged at Ibrox, Frank Sinatra is the subject of two forthcoming events at the Edinburgh Jazz and Blues Festival. Alison Kerr helps us celebrate his life and legacy.
