Dame Emma Thompson reads one of her favourite poems and discusses her new short film Extinction, made during the Extinction Rebellion protests. With cinemas closed and many film releases on hold, what power does lockdown streaming have to change the industry? After the success of Universal's Trolls World Tour as a digital-only release, it says it will continue to put films out via both cinemas and streaming after restrictions are lifted. In response, world leading cinema chain AMC has said it will boycott Universal films, makers of hits like James Bond. Meanwhile the Oscars will for the first time include digital-only films in next year's awards. To discuss the significance of this, Kirsty is joined by film critic Larushka Ivan Zadeh.
