The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 106 (The Underneath and Schizopolis)



The Uncut Gems Podcast

The Uncut Gems Podcast is a show where a bunch of like-minded individuals gather around a virtual table to discuss films that for one reason or another have become forgotten. Tongues pressed firmly in cheek, the team don their film historian top hats and rant from sedentary positions to hopefully conclude whether the film in question deserves to be covered by sands of time or if it is a classic in dire need of attention.

In this episode of the show, we are again cutting deep into Soderbergh's filmography as we talk about his two mid-90s movies The Underneath and Schizopolis. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about deconstructing noir, following the post-QT trends, the importance of characters in a template-based story, New Wave deconstructionism, Richard Lester as a comedy genius, Soderbergh's high-IQ self-awareness and much more!

Tune in, follow, like and subscribe at your podcatcher of choice and be sure to follow the show on Twitter and Instagram as well! You can also support the show on Ko-fi! Also, be sure to subscribe to our Patreon for more exclusive podcasts.
