Stan & Ollie Special | Picturehouse Podcast

Sarah Cook talks to director Jon S. Baird about his new film Stan & Ollie. Sarah then speaks to Shirley Henderson and Nina Adriana about their roles as Lucille Hardy and Ida Kitaeva Laurel in the movie. 

Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly are brilliant as legendary movie icons Laurel and Hardy in Stan & Ollie, the charming and touching story of what would become the triumphant swansong of Hollywood’s greatest comedy double act.

Eager to reignite their film careers, they embark on a gruelling variety hall tour of Britain and Ireland. With the support of their wives Lucille (Shirley Henderson) and Ida (Nina Arianda) – a formidable double act in their own right – the duo reaffirm their love of performing, and for each other, as they secure their place in the hearts of the adoring public.

Stan & Ollie opens on 11 January.
