Episode 231 - Gosford Park
from Uncut Gems Podcast · host Uncut Gems Podcast
In this episode of the show we are closing the books on Robert Altman June with his 2001 period-set whodunnit Gosford Park. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us debate whether this movie is a murder mystery, if it wants to be one and if the intent is for it to subvert the genre. Or maybe if it is supposed to be a platform for Altman to exercise his signature moves. We also talk about the ways in which the movie delineates class divides, how it gives a few of its characters some room to be playful and whether its own anti-climax is a commentary. Plus, we share a few comments on the most potent legacy left behind by this movie, which is the fact that it led to the creation of Downton Abbey.
