What do we know about diamonds? Not much but we know that we love to review a Guy Ritchie film. Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew: Ian, Ethan, and Georgia, as we're bouncing between New York and London in search of a diamond the size of a fist while dodging bullets and any man who keeps a pig farm. All bets are off in our 144th episode as we discuss: What exactly is a circular narrative and how does Snatch present itself as one How did Brad Pitt manage to get himself in this film? Why did Vinnie Jones miss a key scene and why didn't we notice Who was the first choice for Brick Top (you're not going to believe this) Why was the title almost changed for the US market We talk about North America's ignorance to the traveler community and what that may have meant to the film's success Has Jason Statham ever stopped playing Turkish? Ian tries to remember where Dennis Farina is from Which member of the cast had to be recast after the original actor ended up turning violent? Is this Guy Ritchie's Best Film? Whether or not Snatch is the Best Film Ever Become a Patron of this podcast and support the BFE at https://www.patreon.com/BFE We are extremely thankful to our following Patrons for their most generous support: Rev Bruce Juleen from It Goes Down In The PM Lina Oberholzer Ensign Ian Davies Chris Pedersen Katie McRae Duane Smith (Duane Smith!)
