Zach on Film: Snatch (2000) Jun 13, 2014

Show notes

This week Zach learns a little bit about directorial typecasting, films that look a lot a like, Guy Ritchie, Jason Statham, and how to buy a dag, in the 2000 film, Snatch.

This episode of The Major Spoilers Podcast is sponsored by HelloFresh.com. Use the checkout code Major50 to save 50% off your first week's order.

Snatch is a 2000 crime comedy film written and directed by Guy Ritchie, featuring an ensemble cast. Set in the London criminal underworld, the film contains two intertwined plots: one dealing with the search for a stolen diamond, the other with a small-time boxing promoter (Jason Statham) who finds himself under the thumb of a ruthless gangster (Alan Ford).

The film features an assortment of characters, including Irish Traveller Mickey O'Neil (Brad Pitt), arms-dealer Boris "the Blade" Yurinov (Rade Šerbedžija), professional thief and gambling addict Franky "Four-Fingers" (Benicio del Toro), American gangster-jeweller "Cousin Avi" (Dennis Farina), and bounty hunter Bullet-Tooth Tony (Vinnie Jones). It is also distinguished by a kinetic direction and editing style, a circular plot featuring numerous ironic twists of chance and causality, and a fast pace.

The film shares themes, ideas and motifs with Ritchie's first film, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. It is also filmed in the same visual style and features many of the same actors, including Jones, Statham, and Ford.

Other movies mentioned in this week's episode:
