A is warts and all for achievements or segments the nucular destruction her discoveries will unleash the missing piece and leave my love for the actress Rosamund Pike place jury is headstrong bordering on america. That it really was a open castle with one with him and with us his genius is ok but as it comes to women women they always have to be perfect they always have to be sweet and they have to be nice and try said to i dont know in any sweet woman. Trap easy on screen curry is definitely not sweet radioactive is a portrait of a complex contradictory woman whose ideas transformed our world. And scott writes for joins me now very true what she just said that as you mention in the reform and korea double Nobel Prize Winner alleged great figure in science so does this phil do her justice my put in unfortunately not quite i mean its a perfectly decent film and of course. Really is a. Ordinary woman who did an extraordinary things but this for me is a bit too much of an ordinary biopic for such an amazing woman i mean its quite sort of by the numbers by the book style film that weve seen numerous times with with male protagonist what i find interesting though toppy she originally was a graphic artist she was originally a cartoonist and shes incredible visual style and this film is also very impressive visually and i think its most interesting when she sort of breaks away from the traditional bio pic and she does include interesting things visually and and connects cories achievements in science with what will come after and links it to the disasters that come afterwards including the nuclear bomb which probably wouldnt be possible that some of this coverage she made and what she does that sort of breaks the balance of the traditional biopic i think really really works unfortunately she does it too doesnt do it too often and usually its a fairly by the numbers job there seems to be a trend for biopics about famous women of the moment yeah very much so in fact its interesting id even call the subject author of feminist bio pics you have a series of films which are about famous women who were very influential in inventing the cause of women so we have this film we have. Ruth Bader Ginsburg there was a great documentary on her the Supreme Court justice now theres a biopic on her you have Harriet Tubman the africanamerican abolitionist even even helen reddy the australian singer who created the feminist anthem i am woman she has a new a new film about her interesting though or sadly i think with the 1st wave of feminist biopics what seems to unite them is that theyre all kind of conventional and not really that good none of them are horrible ive seen all of them but theyre theyre a bit too too conventional too too safe and it seems almost as if these directors and theyre all female directors have made these films are a bit too respect full of their of their subject and are really taking taking our chances in my piece but still talking about my picks the director this directors 1st film was was almost that wasnt it yeah. Its interesting her. As i said she was a cartoonist a graphic artist and she had a great graphic novel persepolis which she dropped it herself as her 1st try as a director and this is her own story its her story of her a growing up in iran she was born just after the iranian revolution she lived through the arranged around iraq war and then she emigrated to europe where she experienced a sort of cultural and sexual liberation but also a new forms of prejudice and oppression an amazing film an amazing debut and it was one the jury prize in cannes when it debuted was nominated for an oscar really really impressive work i remember i remember through him and i shall remember the film we can see from those films that from those pictures that really innovative is this whats lacking in such rafis new movies yeah i think so i mean i remember seeing persepolis that just blew me away also because it was such an interesting new story but the way she told it i mean she took so much from her own work as a graphic artist and taught was able to tell incredible scenes with just a simple squiggle or a certain line really take the cartoon a static and bring it into film which ive never seen before im used to glimpse of that radioactive some of the visual elements that she brings into the film but the film fortunately for me is far too conventional really wish youd she was able to break lives ok now you interviewed some length in spite of your problems with the new film is she going to be a name to watch out for i think so yeah i dont think shes ever lived up to the last couple of films that shes made hasnt lived up to early promise but we see with this film that she can do a sort of by the numbers biopic she can sort of make a Bigger Picture with bigger stars i hope that means hollywood have the confidence to give her more money to tell her own stories and to take more risks meeting her shes a force of nature i definitely think the new and Better Things are to come for ok scott as always a mine of information thanks very much. All this year there are various exhibitions and events taking place around the world celebrating the genius of a an art adventure who died 500 years ago the last 3 years of his life was spent in the wild valley in france now we joined today in our experts who introduced us to some of the amazing ideas he dreamt up as well as some architectural influences leonardo left behind in the region. The most beautiful castles in little while family completely in the style of Leonardo Da Vinci. The italian renaissance man spent the final years of his life at the chateau de cruel to see him on the wall at the invitation of king francis the 1st now 2 experts from france and germany have come to follow in their nice geniuss footsteps the basement of the palace exhibits machines fashioned after some of the vinci sketches the principle behind his designs was always the same he analyzed what he saw broke it down and rearrange them into something new. I think the left and we can take from me are not of to be capable of challenging ideas that have been carried on for 4 years then cherry then even 1000000 the reefer in some 50 kilometers away in the woman. Everything centers around the vinci as an engineer trying contraptions based on theoretical designs by the renascence artist his idea started with a pair of wings that a human could power when that didnt work the artist simply thought up something else. This is very very close to what a modern hang glider is the man is here on his feet out here so with his hands so he can control the peach. This way of the time machine and with his feet and hes sweet he can control the roll this way. The painter da vinci has a large exhibition dedicated to him in the gardens of truly say you can also see a tapestry of vincis fresco the last supper on loan from the vatican. Da vincis last large scale project in france was the chateau de shamble many of his earlier tech tool designed from italy were incorporated in the construction. We are not trying to mix different knowledge is and knowledge is coming from different places and you know there was a master and i think this is the biggest lesson we should take now just right now from the. Even 500 years ago Leonardo Da Vinci was a modern european his drive to reinvent the world created some of the most impressive morning months that will continue to delight generations to come. How could so much genius be a more anyway the german photographer.

Of influence whenever rivers appeared in pictures beginning way back with da vinci has a symbolic power its a good time for transients for change for the eternal flow of things. For some shots hes inspired by crawled morning only the water lilies are absent at lake by curl in russia minus 40 degrees. Whispers in his ear smoove ice is paradise for those who dance with expertise. For the only philosophers water was one of the for primal elements tireless of my latest recognized in it the primary substance of all being a revolutionary idea he was the 1st to seek a basic principle of all things beyond the world of gods water is the origin of life and its basic condition. For there vinci water was the blood of the mountain the driving force of nature. A stroke of luck among cosmic coincidence is. That one. That when you work in the water when you are right there at the water and using the term allies its movement then you synchronize your internal clock with that of the water and they train a kind of unison on the upper class to.
