The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 154 (Kimi)



The Uncut Gems Podcast

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 inching ever closer to the end of our Steven Soderbergh journey as we talk about one his most recent efforts, Kimi. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about how reliant Soderbergh has become on the quality of the scripts he directs, David Koepp's magic touch, and how a well-paced story can hide a lot of exposition using visuals alone. We also talk about pandemic cinema, know-it-all youngsters, the idea of bugging your own house and that we are all happy to see Devin Ratray aka Buzz from Home Alone in a movie again.

Tune in, follow, like and subscribe at your podcatcher of choice and be sure to follow the show on Twitter and Instagram as well! You can also support the show on Ko-fi! Also, be sure to subscribe to our Patreon for more exclusive podcasts.
