Summer Blockbuster Season

Talking Movies reviews Hollywood's summer movie season and the success of the blockbusters The Odyssey and Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Tom Brook and his team look back at the big successes, costly misses and surprise packages of recent months, including the triumph of low-budget horror films Obsession and Backrooms. The evolution of the summer blockbuster is also explored through the classic movie Jaws. Emma Jones examines the release of De Gaulle - one of the most expensive French films of all time - while Tom celebrates the centenary of Route 66 by looking at the diner as a classic location for iconic American films.
