Film review day, Borders Pub Theatre, Aberdeen Jazz Festival

Film reviews of The White Crow, The Prodigy and The Highwaymen, plus Borders Pub Theatre and Aberdeen Jazz Festival.

Thursday is, as ever, film day and we’ll be reviewing The White Crow, directed by Ralph Fiennes, which tells the story of the young Rudolf Nureyev defecting to the west in 1961, The Prodigy- a family horror starring Orange is the New Black’s Taylor Schilling as the mother of a very unsettling child genius and The Highwaymen, where Woody Harrelson and Kevin Costner star as the men who caught the gangster couple Bonnie and Clyde.

The countdown is on for the first Borders Pub Theatre event, featuring plays by local playwrights, including Jules Horne and Thomas Clark. The evening of new writing is inspired by the very apt theme 'In the Beginning'. Jules and Thomas will be in studio to tell Grant more.

We hear from the director of Scotch: The Golden Dram, a documentary that tells the story of the whisky industry through its most famous distillers.

And finally we find out about the Aberdeen Jazz Festival, which opens tomorrow, as the Afrobeat band Nubiyan Twist stops by the studio to talk to Grant about making their debut in Aberdeen tonight.
