In this episode Mark talks about one of his favourite films: the 2002 American science fiction action film "Minority Report" directed by Steven Spielberg. Loosely based on the 1956 short story "The Minority Report", set in the year 2054, the film stars Tom Cruise as John Anderton, the chief of Precrime - a specialised police department that apprehends criminals before they have committed a crime based on foreknowledge from psychics called "precogs" who are able to the future events before they happen. However, when John Anderton is identified as a suspect in a murder that has not yet taken place he goes on the run to uncover what the events are that will lead to him to commit this murder of someone he does not know, why, and if the predicted murder he is to commit is in fact a "Minority Report" - essentially an alternate prediction of future events than calls into question what is actually going to happen. The film also stars Samantha Morton, Max von Sydow, Colin Farrell, Neil McDonough, Lois Smith, Kathryn Morris, as well as a great cast of other accomplished actors who play some memorable characters throughout the film.
