Overview

A charismatic New York City jeweler always on the lookout for the next big score makes a series of high-stakes bets that could lead to the windfall of a lifetime. Howard must perform a precarious high-wire act, balancing business, family, and encroaching adversaries on all sides in his relentless pursuit of the ultimate win. Wikipedia ↗

About the Film

Uncut Gems is a 2019 American crime thriller directed by Josh and Benny Safdie. The Safdie Brothers created an experience of almost unbearable anxiety, using overlapping dialogue, claustrophobic handheld camera work, Daniel Lopatin's pulsing electronic score, and a narrative structure that offered no moment of relief. Adam Sandler's Howard was simultaneously repulsive and sympathetic — a man whose addiction makes every human relationship transactional yet whose genuine love for the beauty of gemstones reveals a soul buried beneath the hustle.

Uncut Gems earned $50 million worldwide on a $19 million budget.

'Knives Out', 'Uncut Gems', 'Sorry to Bother You', 'Atlanta': In a short amount of time, Lakeith Stanfield has established himself as one of the most exciting actors of his generation. Nothing he ever does is like anything he’s done before.
