In a 'Film Festival Special', Talking Movies visits two of the biggest events on the film festival calendar - Venice and Telluride.

From Venice, Emma Jones will be speaking to Sofia Coppola, the director of 'Priscilla', a look at the marriage of Priscilla Presley to Elvis, from her perspective, as well as 'Tatami' a historic first film collaboration between Iranian and Israeli filmmaker's Zar Amir Ebrahimi and Guy Nattiv.

And on the 80th edition of Venice, Alan Moloney looks back at how the world's oldest film festival has evolved through the decades. From its early beginnings under Mussolini to glory days in the 1950s and 60s Talking Movies looks at its place in the cinematic landscape and examines its role as an important early Oscar predictor.

Tom Brook also reports from the influential Telluride Film Festival in Colorado where he meets celebrated American playwright, theatre and film director George C Wolfe who discusses his film Bayard. It's the story of Bayard Rustin, the gay black civil rights activist, who played a pivotal role in organising the 1963 March on Washington where Martin Luther King JR. gave his famous "I Have a Dream" speech. Also, top British filmmaker Steve McQueen sits down to explain why he chose to present one of his favourite films, Jean Vigo's 1933 French classic Zero de conduite, to Telluride festivalgoers.
