The movie Precious is the story of an overweight and abused Harlem single mother fighting to survive. The film came out of the Sundance Film Festival this year with the Audience and Grand Jury prizes, as well as Oprah Winfrey as a supporter. Director Lee Daniels (Shadowboxer, The Woodsman, Monster's Ball) talks us through his journey.

The lives of families with autistic children are exhausting, harrowing and, finally, maybe even hopeful. The family of Rupert Isaacson is featured in the new documentary, The Horse Boy. Isaacson, a journalist, also wrote a book by the same name.

Wen it started three seasons ago, Mad Men was a show not good enough for HBO. Now the rest of TV struggles to keep up with it.  Creator Matthew Weiner (The Sopranos, Becker) discusses keeping the show ahead of the curves.

He's worked with Wes Anderson, Sofia Coppola and Judd Apatow on the big screen. Now Jason Schwartzman (Rushmore, Funny People, The Darjeeling Limited, Fantastic Mr.Fox) comes to the small screen as a big-hearted, broken hearted private eye. The show is Bored to Death ? but you won't be!

Chris Rock is known for his potent and direct stand-up comedy. As a filmmaker he?s turned that same unblinking eye on himself and black culture. His newest film, the documentary Good Hair, examines the profitable and self-denying world of black-hair culture.

Elvis hosts Danish writer-director Nicolas Winding Refn (Pusher, Fear X) to talk about his new film, Bronson. The film is loosely based on the life of Charles Bronson, considered to be Britain's most violent criminal.

Shine, Snow Falling on Cedars, No Reservations? Director Scott Hicks is attracted to source material. His newest, The Boys Are Back, is another film of a book, bringing emotional honesty to the truth.

From Brother's Keeper to Some Kind of Monster, director Joe Berlinger has made documentaries on communities in crisis. He goes to the Ecuadorian Amazon for his latest, Crude.

Laura Jacobs has a luminous eye for detail, social and physical. It can be glimpsed in her writings on fashion and culture or in her novels, such as her newest, The Bird Catcher.

Writer-director Jane Campion (In the Cut, Holy Smoke) has felt the passion and complications left in its wake, from The Piano to her newest, Bright Star. She talks to Elvis about the fight between heart and head.
