Summary

In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, two films that both ran a little behind schedule for different reasons. V For Vendetta was all set for a November 5th release until production delays kicked in. And there was a whole other conversation happening about the film. The American President came from an original concept by Robert Redford - but he left the project, which would have unexpected ramifications for TV. Stories of both are discussed in this episode.
