Episode 159 - Skyjacked

Uncut Gems Podcast

09-02-2024 • 1 hr 42 mins

In this episode of the show we are getting jacked in the sky as we are talking Skyjacked to kick off our February theme of Terror in the Sky (or T-air-or?). Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about the ripples that Airport made in 1970, how the big studio heads grappled with the advent of The New Hollywood and how this movie maybe belongs in the 60s more than in the 70s. We also talk Charlton Heston's intimidating kissing regimen, airport security, the movie's many outdated proclivities and whether on some level it was maybe a forebearer of the post-Vietnam conversation that materialized towards the end of the decade.

Tune in and enjoy!
