The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 48: R XMas
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 marking Christmas by talking about a Christmas movie nobody remembers, Abel Ferrara's R X Mas. As we delve into this forgotten gem, we dissect Ferrara's style and his tactile and obsessive look at New York, gush over Drea De Matteo's performance and make a few choice connections between this movie and other Holiday classics, like Jingle All The Way!
Merry Christmas!
