The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 166 (The Fan)
The Uncut Gems PodcastThe 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 closing our Spring Clinging series with a homerun as we are talking about Tony Scott's The Fan! Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about how much Nine Inch Nails music is too much, whether this movie gets baseball right and if there is a point to it in the first place only a few short years after Cape Fear. We also talk about positioning this movie as Tony Scott's middle child, the logistics of shaving your body hair as a marketing pitch and whether it is a good idea to bring a car door to a sales meeting.
