It's been 24 years since Russell Crowe stepped into a dusty arena as the mighty Maximus. Now, Ridley Scott has returned to his blockbuster hit for a sequel starring Paul Mescal, Denzel Washington and Connie Nielsen. Film critic Emma Jones tells us why it's a spectacularly entertaining time at the cinema. We also discuss the documentary made by an Israeli-Palestinian collective about forced displacements in the West Bank, and Emma tells us more about Demi Moore's big comeback in "The Substance". French filmmaker Coralie Fargeat has tapped into some timely female anxieties for this body horror, which won the best screenplay prize at the Cannes Film Festival. And we check out a promising début from Corsican filmmaker Julien Colonna, as he returns to the island of his birth for "The Kingdom".
