The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 136 (Behind the Candelabra)
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 peek Behind the Candelabra and talk about Steven Soderbergh's last film before his short-lived retirement. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about what exactly drew Soderbergh to the project, how well Michael Douglas played Liberace, the idea of Matt Damon as the underrated movie star, and the truly dark side of celebrity.
