Here’s a everything we’ve been up to over at the Uncut Gems Podcast, a show I run with my good buddy Randy where we widen our cinematic horizons and dig deep into movies that tend to fly under most people’s radars.
This month, as tradition now dictates, we stopped over at the Soderbergh hotel for a brief few minutes and talked about a duet of his 2009 releases, The Girlfriend Experience and The Informant! In addition, we followed up with a Patreon-exclusive conversation about Contagion.

This month, we also made sure to find time and tie our own cinematic journey to what’s happening in the world at large. Therefore, we paired the long-awaited Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer with our own conversation about Nolan’s most underrated movie, Insomnia.
Episode 129 (Insomnia)
For this month’s main theme we chose to explore the professional partnership between Kevin Reynolds and Kevin Costner. So, we talked about their debut Fandango, their arguably biggest hit Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and – of course – Waterworld, on the 28th anniversary of its release, no less.

Finally, we closed the month by talking about A Woman Under the Influence, John Cassavetes’ seventh and most critically acclaimed film that also – unsurprisingly – left us completely and utterly floored.
