The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 137 (Red Sonja)
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 launching our brief expedition into the 80s to investigate some of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s lesser liked ventures and we begin with 1985's Red Sonja. Over the course of our chat you will hear us talk about the legacy of Conan the Barbarian, 80s romance with fantasy movies, Arnold's ability to know his place, Brigitte Nielsen's onscreen energy, the movie as a feminist protoplast of Xena and Wonder Woman and much more!
