The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 189 (She Hate Me)
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 once again reconnecting with Spike Lee as we are talking about She Hate Me. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us try to deconstruct this movie and identify its beating heart within in its complex structure. So, we talk about paranoid corporate thrillers, sex comedies, Frank Capra movies and everything else that adds up to this movie. We talk about John Turturro playing a mobster fan of Mario Puzo, Anthony Mackie as a Mr. Smith-type who doesn't go to Washington but starts a sperm donor business, issues of fatherhood resurfacing again in Spike Lee's cinema and much more!
