The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 147 (All That Jazz)



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 gather to celebrate a momentous occasion, Randy's birthday, and as luck would have it, we are talking about his favourite film ever - All That Jazz! Flanked by a duet of very special guests, Sarah and Jak, we discuss Bob Fosse's New Wave ways, Roy Scheider's phenomenal acting range and the movie's many meta-musical moments. We also spare a thought or two on the subject of film critics not being able to recognize Fosse's genius, the film's many metaphorical planes of interpretation, its subtle sense of humour 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.
