The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 132 (Haywire)



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 touching base with our ongoing Soderbergh project by talking about Haywire. Over the course of our chat you will hear us try to figure out if this is Soderbergh's The Bourne Ultimatum or The Ipcress File, marvel at Gina Carano's athletic prowess, and share a few comments about her acting skills, too. We also talk about exposition-free plotting, Bill Paxton's alpha energy, Ewan McGregor's chops as a villain 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.
