Uncut Gems | Let Us Explain Dec 18, 2019

Show notes

UNCUT GEMS (2019) This is how we win. An anxiety-fueled vision of New York City's Diamond District from Josh and Benny Safdie, Uncut Gems stars Adam Sandler as a degenerate gambler who gets his hands on an immensely valuable stone. With an impressive cast including LaKeith Stanfield and Idina Menzel, as well as Kevin Garnett and The Weeknd playing themselves, the film is full of charismatic people giving great performances. It's also an intensely uncomfortable experience at times. Join Art, Zach, and AmandaTheJedi as they analyze Uncut Gems.
