Today we have the third and final part of our extensive look at the sights and sounds surrounding Matthew Bournes Swan Lake 3D - a one night only special movie theater showing of the 3D film version available at Fathom-equipped cinemas nationwide tonight - with the princely protagonist of the ballet film himself, rising star Richard Winsor. In this comprehensive conversation, Winsor and I parse many aspects of this daring new take on the classic Tchaikovsky ballet by Matthew Bourne and investigate his collaborative relationship with Bourne on this 3D film and many other projects they have collaborated on so far this century - The Nutcracker, The Car Man, Edward Scissorhands, Dorian Gray and Play Without Words included - as well as take a cursory look ahead to their future work together. Additionally, Winsor shares his insights into the creative process and outlines how he has developed such considerable skill...

Hollyoaks star Richard Winsor has teased his character Francis's forthcoming return to the village, confirming that he will be back to scam more money from the locals. Viewers were led to believe that Francis was a priest until a recent episode showed that he is actually a con artist. Francis was seen heading off to Las Vegas with cash that the residents had raised for orphans in Uganda. However, as Digital Spy revealed last week, fans have not yet seen the last of Francis as he comes back to Chester later this month. Upon his arrival, Francis hopes to con businesswoman Cindy Longford (Stephanie Waring) out of more money, while continuing to struggle with his feelings for Carmel McQueen (Gemma Merna). Winsor told Soaplife: (more)...

Hollyoaks star Richard Winsor has claimed that there will be "confusing" times ahead for his character Father Francis and Carmel McQueen (Gemma Merna). The StreetDance 3D actor revealed that Francis and Carmel will push their forbidden romance "as far as possible", but predicted that the pair will ultimately stay true to their faith. "With Carmel they're just going to take it as far as it can possibly go, with their religion being so strong," he told the Hollyoaks website. "I think that's the confusion, they really have to question themselves. It's quite a deep ride for them both." Winsor went on to express satisfaction with his (more)...

Not sure you can stomach a 3D mash-up of ballet and street dance, Charlotte Rampling and George Sampson, out on DVD this week? Try Paul MacInnes's condensed screenplay instead
StreetDance 3DBy Paul MacInnes, with apologies to Jane English
Scene 1
Ext – London. Dawn over the sprawling Metropolis, or at least the picturesque bit. Cut to a grand building. It may look like St Paul's Cathedral but for the purposes of this movie it is Fred's Cafe. Inside are Nichola Burley, George Sampson and the rest of the J20 street dance crew. George is serving customers while Carly is reading the latest Street Dance Times. The rest of the crew are at a table, eating fried chicken.
Nichola Burley: I love street dance.
George Sampson [turning his baseball cap to a sympathetic angle]: Me too.
Burley: I love it because it's real and it's street and not fake like boring old ballet.
Sampson: Yeah! Now watch me do the electric boogaloo!

Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time (12A)
(Mike Newell, 2010, Us) Jake Gyllenhaal, Gemma Arterton, Ben Kingsley, Alfred Molina. 116 mins
You can tell by the title, the presence of producer Jerry Bruckheimer and the colossal expense how badly this wants to be the next Pirates Of The Caribbean. But it follows the family-friendly franchise formula so slavishly, there are few surprises. On the plus side, the leads are perfectly likable, the pace lively and the Arabian-themed spectacle impressive, but the British accents and incongruous Iraq-invasion parallel only point up what a dubious post-Orientalist wish-fulfilment it really is.
Bad Lieutenant (18)
(Werner Herzog, 2009, Us) Nicolas Cage, Eva Mendes, Val Kilmer. 122 mins
At last Herzog finds a replacement for the infamous Klaus Kinski, as Cage's long-repressed wild side is, er, uncaged, in an ironic portrait of post-Katrina cop corruption. Nothing like the original, it's more of an insane black comedy, with pulp crime...

3D has found its true purpose - backflips, tight torsoes and making London look cool, says Catherine Shoard
What's the real purpose of 3D? Unfettered immersion into brave new worlds? Prising people away from their laptops into the cinema? Lining the pockets of studio bosses? It's easy to be sceptical about all three: the effectiveness of the first, the viability of the second, the ethics of the third. But with StreetDance 3D, stereoscopic technology seems, finally, to have found it's true calling: making London look cool. Our capital so often looks touristy or plain old drab on screen; somehow both possibilities are airbrushed out when it's observed through funny plastic specs. It's as if the wobble and the disorientation acts as a barrier to naff: filtering out gaucheness, amplifying the glamour. Streetdance 3D looks a million dollars – or, rather, as much like Manhattan as possible: cranes and brick warehouse bedrooms...
