Show Notes
In the new episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, a hit family movie from an unusual source, and the most 1990s film of all time.
School Of Rock gave Jack Black a big breakthrough commercial hit. But he had doubts over the choice of director, and getting the music too wouldn't be cheap.
As for Disclosure, the controversial thriller veered away from the Michael Crichton source novel - but its advertising still got into trouble.
Stories of both are told in this episode.
