A British film 'The Duellists', starring Keith Carradine, Harvey Keitel and Albert Finney, won the Special Jury Award at Cannes last year and opened in London last week. It is a finely photographed period film set in the beautiful Dordogne, but the most admirable thing about it may be that it is as faithful an adaptation of Conrad as any the screen has seen - and there have been many, from a 1926 silent version of 'Nostromo' to Richard Brooks's 'Lord Jim' and Hitchcock's 'Sabotage'.

For the last ten years The Red Ladder Company have played in pubs, clubs and community halls, mostly to audiences who have never set foot inside a theatre. 'Taking Our Time' is their latest play. Set in 1842, it uses drama, comedy and songs to tell the story of a turning-point in British history—when the hand-loom weavers of the North rose up against the newly-mechanised world of the Industrial Revolution. Filmed among the industrial museums and the weaving and wool-combing factories of West Yorkshire, this programme shows the making and performance of a new work by one of Britain's most adventurous theatre companies.
