Songs Inspired by the Movies at the BBC

A trawl through the BBC archive for a collection of chart hits that take their inspiration from big-screen stars and classic movie moments, including Bette Davis Eyes by Kim Carnes, Bananarama's 1984 hit Robert De Niro's Waiting, Clint Eastwood by Gorillaz and Deep Blue Something's Breakfast at Tiffany's. The programme also features I'm in Love with a German Film Star, by the Passions, and Shania Twain's That Don't Impress Me Much, which namechecks a leading Hollywood actor

Songs Inspired by the Movies at the BBC airs on BBC Four HD at 11:00 PM, Friday 5 September. (Subtitles.)
