Directors Uncut has evolved to become the Uncut Network. Joined by an array of cool voices from the UK podcasting scene, Rob looks at movies in all shapes and sizes. Each episode focusing on one filmmaker from the many walks of life and corners of the globe, we've also got the same for fan favourite actors and obscure, and weird sub-genres. Seriously, we get super specific. We touch on everything on the Uncut Network. It is is the Movie Podcast with all the niches! …Mostly. We don't do musicals.

Marlene Dietrich - they don't make Hollywood Stars like that any more

Uncut returns for another of our token left turns, from 80s & 90s Anime - we head to classic Hollywood in the hands of Marlene Dietrich.

Rob is joined by Graham, Jimmy and Simon - three signed up Dietrich heads - to talk through the career of one of classic Hollywood's greatest leading ladies, Marlene Dietrich. To do this, we discuss her work through four films - Josef von Sternberg's The Scarlett Empress (1934), George Marshall's Comedy Western, Destry Rides Again (1939), before we finish on 1957's Witness for the Prosecution co-starring Charles Laughton and directed by the GOAT, Billy Wilder.

This episode is a complete love in for Dietrich, one which features loads of recommendations, her politics and how she was just the coolest actor - decades ahead of her time too. So, if you enjoyed this episode, please check out our PATREON too for all sorts of other goodies.
