And beyond this year's awards: who do you think are the most (or least!) worthy wnners of the past? Who lost out but really shouldn't have? Who hasn't even had their good work recognised? And, do you think these glitzy events have earned a place on our cinematic calendar?

Do you enjoy a music biopic? There’s been quite a few in recent years, and that’s what Darren and Neil will be discussing on tonight’s show on City Sound from 21:00-23:00…

We’d love to share your views too. What are your favourites and why? Do you like to hear the actors sing or hear the original voices? Are there any tired cliches that you just cringe to see? And, do you have a favourite musician or group that you think deserves the biopic treatment?

New Episode Alert 🚨 This week our host, Justin, asks us to reflect on the different ways in which critics and websites communicate and summarise their response to films... How do you decide on a star rating? Should a review aim to be entirely objective? Is that possible - or even desirable? Should a star rating reflect the quality of the film or how entertaining the film is?

Through the episode, guided by our host, the mulls work their way through these questions... and many more (alongside their usual tangents and detours!)

Listen in and then let us know what you find desirable in a film review...
