Wes Anderson ‘didn't speak' to Gene Hackman after making The Royal Tenenbaums
Hackman died this year, aged 95, with Anderson's offbeat tale, in which he played the titular patriarch of a family of former child prodigies, one of the last he made before retiring from acting. However, unlike many of the stars of the director's films, like Bill Murray or Jason Schwartzman, they never struck up a lasting friendship. The duo apparently got off on the wrong foot due to The Grand Budapest Hotel filmmaker's tradition of paying all his actors an identical flat fee.

Jazz Legends: Sonny Rollins
With over 70 years of playing jazz under his belt, Sonny Rollins has seen a thing or two. He was present at so many turning points in the music: from bebop to modal jazz, post bop to fusion... and beyond. Now days at the age of 93, Sonny Rollins is one of the last of his generation and a true elder statesman. His contribution to music in both the 20th and 21st centuries is immense, and to this day, many aspiring tenor saxophonists still look to Sonny as a source on inspiration. He was a powerful player with a dominating sound - but he's also a gentle giant too, someone who was always looking to collaborate and pursue new avenues in jazz. Discover Sonny's life and music across this episode, with archival highlights from the ABC's vault, as well as excerpts from pianist Ben Sidran's Talking Jazz series on CD. This episode, presented by bass player and ABC Classic host, Eric Ajaye, was originally broadcast 3 July 2024
