Beautiful Lilie, Sonny Boy
Beautiful Lilie
At 21, Lilie James was busy doing all the things people do at that young age. Studying, working, playing, she was on the threshold of a promising life. But, tragically, last October this beautiful and vivacious woman was savagely beaten to death in the gymnasium of the school where she had a part-time job. The level of violence was shocking – so too was the identity of the man who killed her. Paul Thijssen, 24, Lilie's ex-boyfriend and co-worker at the school, was by all accounts a model citizen. That he could commit such a heinous crime was inconceivable to most who knew him. On 60 MINUTES, Tara Brown speaks exclusively to Lilie James' heartbroken parents, and delves into Thijssen's well-hidden past to unmask the truth about this violent and cruel killer.

Sonny Boy
It was an offer Karl Stefanovic couldn't refuse: An interview with the godfather of modern cinema, Al Pacino. The movie megastar might now be 84, but he remains a force of nature, even recently becoming a father for the fourth time. In fact, as Stefanovic reports, that joyous event was the impetus Pacino needed to look back and, finally, write his long-awaited memoir. Titled Sonny Boy, it is – as everyone would expect – as gritty and intense as many of his explosive on-screen characters. What's perhaps less expected, though, is that the real Al Pacino is also incredibly funny and disarmingly down to earth.
