How do films make you feel? The Independent gets personal about cinema and TV with actors, directors, cinematographers and other people from the continually evolving world of "content" in a new fortnightly podcast hosted by Culture Editor Christopher Hooton.

A Christopher Nolan film is always a big event and his latest, Dunkirk, looks destined to pick up a gaggle of Oscars. In this episode, Chris reviews it, wonders if some of the highest praise in the press might have been a little hyperbolic and considers how it fits within the auteur's filmography. Later, Chris and Jacob catch up with stars of the movie, Cillian Murphy, Mark Rylance and Barry Keoghan.
