Uncut Gems PodcastEpisode 12 - The Mummy and The Mummy ReturnsIn this episode of the show we are taking a deep dive into the world of swashbuckling adventure, corny romance, ancient curses, revived corpses and sand (lots of sand) as we are discussing The Mummy and The Mummy Returns, with a side order of adding our few cents about The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor and even a few words on The Scorpion King. We marvel over the chemistry Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz shared on the screen, identify the multitude of Spielbergian references peppered throughout the series, take a few swipes at the way the franchise developed...2021-04-162h 22
Uncut Gems PodcastEpisode 10 - CongoIn this episode of the show we having an absolute ball discussing Frank Marshall's 1995 adventure romp, Congo. Over the course of the discussion, which got heated and eventually went completely off the rails, we tried to get to the bottom of whether this film is great, abysmal or so-bad-it's-awesome. We also pontificated over just how much high calibre talent was found behind the scenes, shared a few laughs at the expense of the film's exquisitely campy writing and (at least some of us) wondered if Amy was a real gorilla after all. So, as you may imagine, the conversation...2021-04-021h 56
Uncut Gems PodcastEpisode 09 - Never Let Me GoIn this episode of the show we are taking a look at Mark Romanek's Never Let Me Go, an adaptation of a Kazuo Ishiguro novel penned by none other than Alex Garland. Over the course of our discussion we ponder how easy it is for this film to hide its science-fiction high concept backbone, ruminate over the film's multitude of interpretations, hail its great performances and even attempt to view it as a cinematic expression of veganism. Most of all, we scratch our heads as to why Never Let Me Go did not persist in the cultural consciousness for...2021-03-261h 16
Uncut Gems PodcastEpisode 08 - Lonely Are The BraveIn this episode of the show we are discussing a mostly orphaned western from 1962, Lonely Are the Brave directed by David Miller and starring Kirk Douglas, Gena Rowlands, and Walter Matthau. We are trying to figure out if this film can still be classified as a western despite its modern setting, discuss the impact it had on movies that came after it and see if it can be read as an early tell-tale sign of the Golden Age of Hollywood coming to an end. In addition, we do manage to weave the theme of the currently ongoing pandemic into...2021-03-191h 16
Uncut Gems PodcastEpisode 06 - GlassIn this episode of the show we are setting our sights on M. Night Shyamalan's conclusion to 'The Eastrail 177 Trilogy' (aka 'The Unbreakable Trilogy'), Glass. We leave no stones unturned as we grapple with the film's status as a potentially misunderstood masterpiece, get to the nitty-gritty of Shyamalan's filmmaking style, screenwriting quirks, indulgences and inspirations, and try to figure out whether the film truly deserves to be remembered as an epic conclusion to a long-gestating passion project, or whether it is an example of style-over-substance filmmaking. Come for the film talk, stay for the fisticuffs (because this particular discussion...2021-03-053h 44
Uncut Gems PodcastEpisode 05 - Alien Nation and BrightIn this episode of the show we are taking a look at the 1988 sci-fi buddy cop movie starring James Caan and Mandy Patinkin, Alien Nation, and pitting it against a film that could be seen as its spiritual descendant, the David Ayer-directed Bright. We are trying our best to understand why one of these films feels organic, lived-in and fun, while the other comes across as offensive to the senses (you figure out which one is which) in a no-holds-barred discussion about filmmakers' responsibilities, recipes for culturally-impactful genre storytelling, narrative tactfulness and more!
Tune in and enjoy!2021-02-262h 20
Uncut Gems PodcastEpisode 04 - Black SundayIn this episode we stay in the 1970s and take a very close look at John Frankenheimer's forgotten blockbuster, Black Sunday. We dig deep into Frankenheimer's place as an iconic filmmaker of the decade, wax poetic about the film's unique aesthetic, attempt to identify just how much of it has crept into the subconsciousness of popular culture and even try to tease out the connective tissue present in John Williams's epic score!

Uncut Gems PodcastEpisode 03 - ConvoyIn this episode of the show, we are travelling back in time to the seventies and talk about Sam Peckinpah's penultimate directorial effort, Convoy. Together with our guests we try to decide if Kris Kristofferson is hot or not, figure out how the film stacks up to Smokey and the Bandit, try to tease out its convoluted legacy as well as its own identity as a post-western, and dive deep into the nuance of its production, all of which make the film a rather interesting conversation.

Grand Hotel ItaliaWalter Chiari e Kim Novak all’Excelsior di RomaSono Tommaso Masci, concierge all’Hotel Excelsior di Roma, e in confidenza vi dico che Walter Chiari era un altro grande attore che spesso veniva da noi. Una sera mi disse: «Caro Masci, riesco a mettere insieme tremila persone in una sera e non riesco a mettere d’accordo me, mia moglie e mio figlio». Lì per lì la cosa mi colpì molto ma, facendo questo lavoro, si capisce una cosa: spesso le persone famose, che godono di grande successo, così come gli industriali che viaggiano tanto per affari, hanno bisogno di recuperare una dimensione umana.
