The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 66 (Lifeboat)
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 the anniversary of Sir Alfred Hitchcock's passing by talking about one of his arguably lesser known works, namely Lifeboat. Over the course of our deep and meandering conversation you will hear us talk about the film's single-location gimmick, various bits of drama on set, Canada Lee's magnificent performance, the film functioning both as an anti-Nazi propaganda and a bona fide anti-war effort and much, much more!
