The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 53 (Hollow Man)
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 waltzing all the way back to the year 2000 as we discuss the last film Paul Verhoeven made in Hollywood, namely Hollow Man. Over the course of our discussion you will hear us talk about the sleazy exploitation vibes Verhoeven always sneaks into his movies, the mechanics of invisibility, the lengths the filmmakers went to in order to make this movie happen, the film's Hitchcockian roots and much more.
