About this episode
In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, changes in the Harry Potter franchise, and a cult hit from a reluctant director. 2004's Harry Potter & The Prisoner Of Azkaban (2004) saw the popular series in need of a mini-course correction, and some notable personnel changes. Allan Moyle, meanwhile, had John Cusack in mind for his 1990 movie Pump Up The Volume . And he wasn't keen to direct it. Stories of both are discussed in this episode.
