The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 113 (Rapid Fire)
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 taking our Brandon Lee journey to the next level as we talk his 1992 Rapid Fire. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about Brandon Lee channeling Jackie Chan, his maturation to become a bona fide action star, the film's meta connection with real life, Powers Boothe playing a good guy for a change, the oddity of navel kissing to the tune of 80s rock, the sheer talent needed to sketch a full-on dragon to complement a nude live subject in art class, and much more!
