2012 год. Говард Ратнер владеет небольшим ювелирным магазином в Нью-Йорке. Являясь большим фанатом НБА, он жизни не мыслит без ставок на игры, поэтому находится по уши в долгах и постоянно скрывается от кредиторов. Однажды подельник приводит к нему в магазин ведущего игрока «Бостон Селтикс» Кевина Гарнетта, и в это же время из Эфиопии приходит посылка с редкими неогранёнными чёрными опалами. Зачарованный их блеском Гарнетт буквально приклеивается к этому куску породы, просит одолжить его на несколько дней и оставляет в залог чемпионское кольцо. Говард тут же закладывает кольцо в соседнем ломбарде и на вырученную сумму делает ставку на игру «Селтикс».

KG did so well, its hard for an actor to play them self without looking fake and KG played his self perfectly. "You’re taking my money, all over town, placing bets! " "Is it too late? I’m done. It means nothing. It meant nothing. Please, give me another shot. " — Howard Ratner Uncut Gems is a 2019 crime-thriller film directed by Josh and Benny Safdie (of Good Time fame) and starring Adam Sandler. It was released on December 13th, 2019 by distributor A24 in the United States and distributed worldwide by Netflix on January 30th, 2020. Sandler stars as Howard Ratner, a charismatic New York Diamond District jeweler and gambling addict whose clients are some of the most powerful and wealthiest people in the city. When a potential transaction of his goes awry and an old, persistent Loan Shark of his starts swimming straight for him, Howard must make a series of precarious high-stake acts as everything from his family, his creditors, and his clients start to catch up to him in more ways than one. The rest of the cast includes Lakeith Stanfield, Julia Fox, Idina Menzel, Eric Bogosian, The Weeknd, and Kevin Garnett. The film, which was in the works by the Safdies for more than ten years, primarily due to the lack of financial backing and an attached star, was written by Ronald Bronstein and the Safdies. The cinematography was done by Darius Khondji, and the music was composed by Daniel Lopatin, AKA Oneohtrix Point Never. Preview: Trailer Uncut Gems contains examples of: Adam Westing: The Weeknd insisted on being portrayed as an obnoxious diva, which he says was accurate to his behavior at the time of the movie. All for Nothing: Howard risks everything on one last wager. He manages to sneak the cash to his girlfriend, and his girlfriend evades the thugs to place the bet. He wins big, and his girlfriend gets the money, but it doesn't matter because Phil shoots and kills him moments after his victory. All Jews Are Ashkenazi: Howard notes that, in spite of being Jewish, he had no idea about the existence of Ethiopian Jews, many of whom are trapped in Africa mining gems. In reality, any observant Jew would be aware of Ethiopian Jews, though not necessarily the current status of those still in Africa. All-Natural Gem Polish: Subverted, per the title. The gigantic, uncut opal only has a few "windows" that showcase its beauty, and the rest looks like an ordinary rock. Ambiguous Situation: Was Julia about to cheat on Howard with The Weeknd? The Weeknd was definitely making advances, which she was repelling, but flirtatiously. Her resolve did appear to be weakening, but she may have just been trying to close the sale as she claims. The opal ends up being vastly undervalued by the auction house. Howard claims it was vindictive given the last-minute circumstances and if appraised by a third party would still be over $1 million, but when reviewing it by hand a second time, the supernatural color seemed duller, implying that their obsession with the gem made it seem brighter before. Animal Motifs: The slimy, greedy, unreliable, lying and unfaithful Howard Ratner is ratlike. In addition to his name, the character has a noticeable overbite produced by giving Adam Sandler a set of fake upper teeth. Artistic License – History: Zig-zagged. Although the movie accurately depicts the course of the 2012 NBA Eastern Conference Semifinals, and Kevin Garnett's up-and-down performance, the movie also utilizes Blade, a helicopter rental company, as an important plot device, despite Blade only having been created in 2014. As Himself: Basketball legend Kevin Garnett and R&B star The Weeknd both play themselves, with Garnett in particular having a sizable role. (Interestingly, the movie takes place in 2012, when The Weeknd was a darling of the underground as opposed to the pop star he currently is. He even wears his hair the same as he did in 2012! ) Author Appeal: The Safdie Brothers are noted basketball fans, and many of Howard's bets involve basketball. Retired basketball star Kevin Garnett plays himself, and the Safdie brothers were initially resistant to the idea because they're hardcore Knicks fans and Garnett was a legendary Celtic. Howard, being a New Yorker, wears a Knicks championship ring. Howard's Jewish cultural identity (if not his faith) factors heavily into the film, and the Safdies are themselves New York Jews. Bastard Understudy: Phil disobeys Arno and murders him in cold blood after his boss freaks out upon Howard's death. Berserk Button: Although pretty much everyone has a Hair-Trigger Temper, Howard's particular button is pushed when Arno sends his goons to intimidate Howard at his daughter's school play. He becomes so enraged that he attacks the goons in the hallway, once again ending up in way over his head. Big Applesauce: Apart from the prologue, it takes place almost entirely in New York. Big Eater: We only see Gary, Howard's bookie, twice, and both times he's in an upscale restaurant. The second time, he's even in the kitchen, giving very particular instructions to the chef. Bodyguard Betrayal: Phil ends up murdering his boss, Arno. Book-Ends: The film begins with a worm's eye view of an opal, which transitions into a trip through Howard's colon. It ends with a trip into Howard's bullet wound and transitions into opalescent colors. Boom, Headshot! : Howard's ultimate fate. Bratty Teenage Daughter: In the single full conversation they share together, Howard's daughter can barely stand to talk to him for longer than a few moments. Like many things in the movie, it's unclear whether this is her normal behavior, she's pissed off that he missed a portion of her play or related to Howard's behavior around his family in general. Blunt "Yes": This exchange: Phil: (angrily) You havin' a good time?! Howard:.. Bullying a Dragon: Howard spends the entire film inconveniencing, delaying or just plain irritating Arno's goon Phil in some way. This ultimately earns him a bullet to the face. Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Despite everything else completely falling apart for him, we're never told the nature of his debts. Howard makes two complicated, long-shot bets, and they both hit—Howard may fail at everything else, but is apparently good at sports gambling. Butt-Monkey: Howard gets beaten up, humiliated, screamed at by just about everybody, verbally emasculated by his wife, locked naked in the trunk of a car, and eventually shot in the face. Call-Back: Just like in the directors' previous film, Good Time, the end features an incredibly valuable object being dangled out of a high window. One of the characters even asks if Howard is having a "good time. " The Cameo: Tilda Swinton and Natasha Lyonne are heard as, respectively, the auction house manager and a Celtics staff member who talk to Howard over the phone. John Amos of Good Times appears briefly in the movie as himself as one of Howard's neighbors, which also doubles as a Stealth Pun if you know the Safdies' last movie, Good Time. Chekhov's Gun: The Overly Long Gag about Howard's security door failing to open becomes essential in the climax when he uses it to trap the loan sharks in his shop while Julia goes to Connecticut to bet their money on the semifinals. Chekhov's Gunman: Phil is Arno's easily agitated henchman who seems to be a bit of a nuisance to Howard (to put it lightly), injuring him multiple times throughout the film as he grows more impatient. He's also the one who ends up killing Howard. Classical Anti-Hero: Howard is a sleazy, hedonistic dirtbag who repeatedly proves to be his own worst enemy. Cluster F-Bomb: This is a deeply profane movie. Even Howard's kids drop a few f-bombs. In fact, it's so profane that it's currently ranked fourth in the "most f-bombs dropped in a movie" category, with 500 uses. Complexity Addiction: Howard has multiple opportunities to square his debts... or to concoct even riskier bets by cheating everyone around him, up to and including his own family. He always chooses the latter. Cool Shades: Howard wears them in the last third of the film to cover up the black eyes he got from Phil after the auction. "Could Have Avoided This! " Plot: Howard's prime mistake was flaunting the opal to Garnett, and then loaning it to him all while on a time crunch. The underlying stress of the entire movie hinges on Garnett not returning the stone promptly, which has multiple domino effects: Howard habitually took the championship ring given to him as collateral and pawned it in order to bet on the game, the bet attracts the attention of Arno and his enforcers who start putting more violent pressure on him, Howard had no time to get the stone appraised by his own guys before handing it to the auction house who ( ambiguously) undervalue it, this only leads to getting far less for the gem than expected and he places a monumental bet to try to recoup his losses, which again puts him in danger of Arno. Crazy Enough to Work: Incredibly, Howard's final gambit, betting all the money he owes to Arno on the NBA Semifinals, actually works, as the Celtics win and his bet pays off big time. Unfortunately, Phil is too fed up with Howard's shit by this point and decides it would be easier to just kill him and loot his store. Cringe Comedy: Some of Howard's escapades are so desperate and pathetic that they devolve into this, such as the scene where he's forced to ask his neighbors if his son can use the bathroom in their apartment because he doesn't want his son to see the apartment he uses to have sex with Julia. Cutting the Knot: By the end of the film, Phil has had it with Howard's increasingly audacious behavior and decides the simplest way to get his money back would be to just shoot him and take everything in his store. A Date with Rosie Palms: Howard tricks Julia into having phone sex through texts and pictures while he's spying on her from the closet. Destination Defenestration: Phil and Nico hold Howard out a window when he reveals that he bet their money on a basketball game. Determinator: Howard, despite being caught in a huge mess, is determined to get out the situation he's in by performing a series of high-stakes acts that threaten him if things go wrong. Didn't Think This Through: Howard never considered the idea that locking violent mobsters in his building was never going to go over well with them no matter how much money he made from winning. Even worse is that he lets them back into the shop where he's defenseless. Especially considering Phil has been very clearly shown to be a violent psychopath, and brandished a gun at Howard while trapped. Downer Ending: Howard's gamble paid off big, but Phil still shoots Howard in the face, and the movie ends with him bleeding out on the floor of his shop. The only possible silver lining is that his family is safe (albeit now without a father), and Julia made off with millions (which isn't a particularly great thing in and of itself, seeing as she's a stupid, selfish, materialistic moron). That being said, Howard did die at probably the happiest moment of his life, which might be all that matters to him by that point. Dragon Ascendant: As soon as Howard wins his biggest bet on the Celtics game and frees Arno, Phil, and Nico, Phil shoots him without hesitation, kills Arno when he protests, and then loots Howard's store alongside Nico. Dragon-in-Chief: Howard notes that Arno is completely unthreatening without Phil to back him up. Indeed, Phil completely loses patience with his boss over the course of the movie and unhesitatingly kills him along with Howard at the end. Embarrassing Tattoo: After Howard breaks up with her, Julia responds by getting "Howie" tattooed on her ass. Everything's Sparkly with Jewelry: Unsurprising, considering that this is a film that revolves around the business of the Diamond District of New York. Including a diamond-encrusted Furby. Fan Disservice: Adam Sandler appears nude in this film due to a Shameful Strip. Foot-Dragging Divorcee: Dinah loathes her husband, and wants to get divorced as soon as possible. Howard, on the other hand, isn't so sure, and does his best to delay the inevitable. Foregone Conclusion: Basketball fans will know that Kevin Garnett will lead the Celtics to victory in Game 7 of the Semifinals. Gainax Ending: The final shot zooms into the bullet hole in Howard's face, through a CGI network of strange patterns resembling the inside of the black opal, and ends on a shot of what appears to be outer space before the credits roll. The Gambling Addict: Howard is one, making big bets on basketball. His bookie isn't afraid to tell him that one audacious bet is the stupidest thing he's ever heard. Unsurprisingly, he owes a lot to people and is a target of loan sharks. Go Out with a Smile: Howard gets shot in the head and killed instantly in the midst of probably the biggest gambling high of his entire life, and even as a corpse he has a contented smile on his face. It's likely he got killed before he could even register that there was a gun in his face. Gold Digger: Julia is much younger and more attractive than her boss, Howard, but sleeping with him gives her a gorgeous apartment in Manhattan. In fact, this gets entirely subverted: Julia is the most loyal and reliable person in Howard's life. After Howard breaks up with her, she gets "Howie" tattooed on her ass. Goldfish Poop Gang: In addition to Arno's crew, a pair of bumbling Jewish men are after Howard for some unresolved debts, but Howard successfully shoos them away every time and they never pose a real threat, eventually just disappearing from the story entirely during the climax. Greedy Jew: Howard is Jewish, and the film revolves around him trying to hustle his way into money to close deals and pay off debts. Given than he's already a successful diamond merchant, and all his debts seem to be related to reckless sports betting, his real problem is being a thrill-seeker rather than being greedy. Hair-Trigger Temper: Most people in this movie have a very short fuse. Almost every interaction could turn into a screaming match at any moment. Historical Fiction: The film is set in 2012. The Boston Celtics' performance in the 2011-2012 playoff semifinals are a prominent part of the film. Historical In-Joke: Bet you didn't know that Kevin Garnett's performance in the 2012 Eastern Conference Semifinals came from a possibly-magical black opal, huh? It Will Never Catch On: Subverted. Julia makes an accurate prediction about The Weeknd early in his career, saying "He’s going to be major, even though he’s from Canada. " Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Arno. Like most of the people in Howard's life, he's tired of the gambling junkie's debts and debauchery, even going so far as to order his thugs to accost Howard at his daughter's play, strip him naked and lock him in the trunk of his car, and later break his nose. But by Celtics Game 7, it's clear that Arno was only trying to humiliate Howard into paying up. He had no intention of inflicting any real harm on his brother-in-law, and was even impressed by Howard's successful bet. Unfortunately, Phil wasn't moved at all and wastes no time in murdering both Howard and Arno in cold blood. Jeweler's Eye Loupe: Howard lets Kevin Garnett use the loupe to inspect the opal, and Kevin gets so enamored with it that he wants to buy the opal on the spot. Jews Love to Argue: Howard, his family, and much of the diamond district are Jewish, and they spend most of the film arguing with each other. Kavorka Man: Howard is a paunchy, middle-aged sleazebag with some extremely unhealthy habits, but is not only married to the attractive Dinah (who can still fit in her bat mitzvah dress after three children) but also has a mistress in Julia, who's so gorgeous that most men can't help but flirt with her. Though this is subverted with Dinah — though she seems to still have an iota of love for him, she nevertheless loathes him and is no longer attracted to him — Julia sincerely adores him. Kick the Dog: When Demany gets fed up with Howard and storms out of his office, he pours a bunch of red wine into the fish tank purely out of spite. Lame Comeback: This gem of an exchange: Gary: I'll tell you what I know. That's the dumbest fucking bet I've ever heard of. Howard:... I disagree. (turns to walk away) I disagree, Gary! Like Father, Like Son: For all of Howard's failings towards his other children (he misses part of his daughter's play and neglects tucking in his younger son so that he can watch the NBA game he bet on), he seemingly has a great relationship with his older son, and we see the pair over their mutual love of basketball. Loan Shark: Arno, who is backed up by his heavies Phil and Nico. Despite Howard's mounting debts, Arno is reluctant to actually kill Howard because they're related by marriage. Man Bites Man: Howard bites Phil's arm to get out of a headlock at one point. Phil complains about it throughout the next scene. Matzo Fever: Arno is an Armenian who has married into a Jewish family. His Jewish in-laws make loaded comments about him being a gentile behind his back. Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Outside of Kevin Garnett, nobody in the movie treats the black opal as anything but an incredibly valuable gemstone. And yet, Garnett has visions staring into the opal, performs much better with the opal as his good luck charm, and Howard meets his death not long after selling it. Meaningful Name: Julia's name is sometimes shortened to "Jules", which sounds exactly like "jewels". Quite appropriate for a materialistic young woman in a love affair with a jeweler. Mineral MacGuffin: The black opal is a classic example. Howard sees it as the key to getting out of the hole he's in, while Kevin Garnett sees it as a possibly-magical good luck charm that will propel him to success in the playoffs. The Mistress: Julia is the young mistress of Howard's as well as his employee. While separated from his wife, he lets her stay in his bachelor's apartment. Mood Whiplash: The ecstatic mood from Howard winning his last bet is rudely interrupted when Phil abruptly shoots him in the face. Played with, as the heavenly soundtrack continues on uninterrupted and the film cuts to other scenes of Julia and Howard's family celebrating the win, showing how meaningless Howard's life ultimately turned out to be. The film practically begins on a mood whiplash when the camera zooms into the ethereal interior of a beautiful black seamlessly transitions into what turns out to be an inside view of Howard's colon. Ms. Fanservice: Julia is gorgeous, and has a notable scene with Howard where she masturbates a little and is wearing only lingerie. No Indoor Voice: Howard has a very short fuse and starts screaming at the top of his lungs whenever things go wrong, which is all the time. Several characters admonish him to calm down or lower his voice, which only makes him louder. Not So Stoic: A woman Howard calls on the phone regarding the opal situation starts off clipped and professional, but the moment Howard becomes rude to her she starts to hurl insults and profanities with the best of them. Obnoxious In-Laws: Played straight with Arno, the movie's primary antagonist, who's related to Howard through marriage. Subverted with Gooey, Howard's wealthy father-in-law, who is friendly to Howard during the Passover seder and even goes along with one of his schemes (albeit reluctantly). Pointy-Haired Boss: Howard is an excellent gambler, but a horrible boss. He completely ignores an upset employee to fawn over his new opal. He alienates his partner, Demany, and nearly drives away Julia, his most loyal worker. His criminal troubles constantly put the shop itself in danger. Pretty Little Headshots: Howard gets shot with a very small pistol, so his face is perfectly intact apart from a small bullet hole beneath his eye at the end. Protective Charm: Kevin Garnett believes that the opal empowers his athletic ability, and he's willing to pay handsomely to own it. Notably, he has a great game with the opal, plays poorly without it, and then wins the final game after buying it. Howard himself dies a few hours after selling it. Punk in the Trunk: Arno and his henchmen beat up Howard, take his clothes, and force him into the trunk of his own car. Howard is only in the trunk for a few minutes–he calls his wife to come out and unlock it. Realistic Diction Is Unrealistic: Make no mistake, this film has some noisy characters, which is what you'd expect when most of them are hot-tempered ne'er-do-wells trying to make themselves heard in crowded and chaotic urban environments. Their conversations are so full of repetition, shouting, and interruptions of all kinds that their more conventionally cinematic exchanges feel like an example of Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene. Some of this may be intentional, but some of it may also be due to a relative lack of professional actors among the cast. "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Dinah gives a particularly venomous one to Howard when he asks her to give him another chance, making it extremely clear that they're completely done. Reasonable Authority Figure: Despite being a loan shark who keeps a pair of violent mafiosos on retainer, Arno gives Howard multiple opportunities to pay him back and discourages unnecessary violence. This backfires when Phil's patience finally gives out, earning both Howard and Arno himself bullets to the face. Red Herring: The film starts with Howard's colonoscopy, and his doctor notes polyps that will need a biopsy. Howard awaits results of the tests, but he's later revealed to have no issues and the subject is never brought up again. Right Under Their Noses: Arno's goons wait in the lobby of the casino, looking to intercept Julia and the multi-million dollar payout. Julia has her new friend carry duffel bags full of cash right past them out to her in a limo. Self-Deprecation: The Weeknd is portrayed, at his own request, as a stuck-up diva who gets cockblocked by Howard. "Shaggy Dog" Story: Things never go right for Howard in the film, and the one time that things go right when he wins big on Game 7 of the Celtics-76ers playoffs, he is fatally shot. Shameful Strip: Arno tries to teach Howard a lesson by stripping him naked and locking him in the trunk of his own car, forcing Howard to pitifully ask his wife to let him out over the phone. Slap-Slap-Kiss: Howard and Julia's relationship gets quite ugly at several points in the movie, but it's still by far the most loving relationship that Howard's a part of. Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism: This is a bleak film. It pulls no punches in showing just how self-destructive a gambling addiction can be. Even when Howard's given opportunities to pay back his massive debts, he instead either wastes the money on frugalities, or makes incredibly risky bets for no reason other than because he wants to win. This creates a vicious self-destructive cycle that he not only can't break, he seems to be unwilling to even attempt to break. Surprisingly Sudden Death: Right after winning the biggest bet of his life, Howard gets unceremoniously popped by Phil, who has long since crossed his Rage Breaking Point. Too Dumb to Live: Howard is killed at the end of the movie, which he could have easily avoided by just paying the mobsters the money he owed them from the get-go. He had multiple chances to do so but constantly made more gambling bets instead, most damningly during the climax where he had the money ready to give to them but immediately bets on the Celtics game instead while locking the mobsters in his building. 20 Minutes into the Past: The film was released in 2019, but is set in 2012. Whammy Bid: Howard puts the prized opal up for auction. He enlists his father-in-law to drive up the bidding, which predictably backfires. Yank the Dog's Chain: Howard's life is just a back-and-forth of getting just a little luck, and then immediately losing it. His first bet on the Celtics actually is successful... Until Arno reveals that he cancelled the bet, rendering the victory worthless. The opal itself was supposed to be worth over $1 million, but when it's actually appraised, it's only in the very low six figures — still enough to pay off Howard's debts, but not enough for a big payout. Garnett still wants to buy it, but Howard's greed leads him to drive up the auction price until Garnett declines to keep bidding. Garnett still wants the opal, however, so Howard manages to get his ring back and successfully sell him the stone, which is enough needed to pay off his debts to mobsters who are currently in his office. But instead he bets on the next Celtics game for a massive payout worth millions, and actually manages to succeed... Only to be immediately shot in the head at his moment of victory by one of the frustrated mobsters. Yiddish as a Second Language: Being as the film centers around a bunch of New York Jews, this is to be expected. Your Cheating Heart: Howard cheats on his wife with Julia, a young assistant at his jewelry store; he pays rent for her apartment. Howard catches Julia in the bathroom with The Weeknd. Julia maintains they were just doing coke, but Howard is convinced that she was cheating on him. She makes it up to him by having his name tattooed on her ass. "This is me. This is how I win. ".

Download uncut gems for free online. The Safdie brothers’ Adam Sandler thriller is brilliant, but watching it is a horrible experience A stream of bluster and bullshit … Adam Sandler in Uncut Gems. Photograph: Julia Cervantes/A24 Y ou won’t see a better-made film this year than Uncut Gems, the Safdie brothers’ propulsive new thriller about the street-level misadventures of a petty crook. Nor will you see one that’s more stressful, aggravating or intensely unpleasant to watch. Uncut Gems may well be a minor masterpiece. It might also be the least enjoyable Adam Sandler movie of all time. As with their previous film Good Time, Josh and Benny Safdie have forged a stunningly effective tale of a man with an unparalleled ability to dig himself into deeper and deeper trouble. Sandler spends two hours at the centre of a spiralling, self-inflicted catastrophe involving Ethiopian opals, big-money bets and knuckle-cracking debt collectors. The plot is filled with a sense of mounting distress, reflected and heightened by the way it’s told: the camera ducks and weaves restlessly, voices yell over each other and jockey for our attention, garish interiors assault our eyes, discordant music fades in and out, diamond necklaces sparkle luridly, doors jam at vital moments. Good Time was a similarly sweat-inducing experience but it did have one merciful element in that its protagonist, Robert Pattinson, stayed largely silent. Sandler’s character, on the other hand, never shuts up – he’s a one-man stream of bluster and bullshit, constantly making promises he can’t fulfil, and has a maddening habit of trying to hold multiple high-stakes conversations at once. Keeping pace with his wheeler-dealer bravado requires infinite patience. To put it simply, Uncut Gems is a film that should come with a panic attack warning. Of course, not every trip to the cinema should leave you feeling warm and fuzzy. In the case of horror films, for instance, the discomfort is the draw. But horror films tend to puncture the tension with jump-scares, which offer their own perverse pleasure. Uncut Gems is the tantric equivalent, with all the rising pressure but none of the release. Besides, being scared is different to being stressed. The Safdie brothers’ films cause stress via a particular kind of sustained intensity, and as such have more in common with a film such as Pi, or the final stretch of Requiem for a Dream. Except that where those films culminated in nightmarish excess, the Safdies’ movies stay grounded in gritty realism – and are all the more claustrophobic for it. Watch a trailer for Uncut Gems Uncut Gems is the work of once-in-a-generation film-makers with remarkable vision and ambition, a visceral antidote to the cookie-cutter blockbusters that generally clog up the multiplexes. Yet, whereas the Marvel movies, for example, are infuriating because they can’t generate any jeopardy or tension, Uncut Gems has the same effect via opposite means, dragging you by the lapels through wrong turn after wrong turn and towards inevitable calamity. It is a thing of technical mastery and uncompromising execution – but so is a punch in the face from Mike Tyson, and that doesn’t go on for two hours. There is one exception. Midway through the film, Sandler’s wife finally snaps, and the scene falls silent while she tells him, slowly and deliberately: “I think you’re the most annoying person on the planet. I hate being with you, I hate looking at you, and if I had my way, I would never see you again. ” It’s a relief to hear someone say it, and it’s the one tiny concession to catharsis in a film that’s otherwise a relentless bombardment of anxiety and apprehension. Most great movies offer the experience of glorious escapism, leaving you dismayed when they finally end and you’re faced once again with real life. Uncut Gems is a great movie with a difference: when it’s over, you escape gratefully back into the real world, safe in the knowledge that life’s pulse-lowering mundanities aren’t so bad after all.
This song been on this planet like 4years travis scott fans will know.
The beeps really ruin this, its not really “uncut” is it.
Thanks for trying.
I cannot wait to see this movie

its a verbal attack at each other, grown up men and pinup ladies, more or less connected to eachother in the greedy business of trading colourful and brilliant gems in new york. its a semiracial battle with a lot of profanity between blacks,jews,italians, slavics and balcans, fighting over the money that the miserable main caracter has flung out the window by gambling.
its not a good movie, and the chatter becomes so loud that it almost touches the nerve of the heartbeat. the filmographic product are viscerall and nearly never still, the sound and editing couldve been better, and the screenplay and acting are just above the interesting level.
if you like adam sandler,youll get what you pay for, he is the menice like always, but being a grumpy old man, i would rather have seen him against some reaal good hollywood crooks. hes fine, but thats all. a small recommend.

Free Online Uncut gemstone. Good movie. But NOT good as I thought after I saw this whole thing on Christmas, last year. Best movie i've seen in 20 years. Act One of “Uncut Gems” includes footage from a colonoscopy. It’s by far the most probing, thoughtful, well-paced and illuminating scene in the film. This film was written and directed by the Safdie Brothers, the current “next big thing” in movie-making. Their 2017 film “Good Time” with Robert Pattinson was selected to compete for the Palme d’Or, the highest prize at Cannes. Their films have been described by “Variety” as “raucously interior inner-city films” that are “contemporary, raw and untethered. ” “Uncut Gems” has been ten years in the making. It is based on family lore told by the Safdies’ father, who worked in the diamond district of New York City. The film’s central character, Howard Ratner (Adam Sandler), is a diamond merchant and compulsive gambler doing everything he can to stay one step ahead of the debt collectors. Howard imports a blood opal from Africa in the body of a fish, he makes wildly implausible bets on NBA games, he gets locked naked in the trunk of his own car while attending his daughter’s school play, he gets thrown into a fountain. After that, the action picks up. Unfortunately, it’s all just mania in search of a purpose. While some moviegoers may experience this film as one long adrenaline rush, for me the frantic pace and too-close hand-held cameras were simply exhausting. The film offers zero character development – Howard is apparently genetically incapable of introspection, much less learning from his incessant mistakes. In fairness, there is one moment of personal insight in Act Three. Of course, this flash of self-awareness is discarded immediately. The film’s climactic scene is shocking, but completely unearned. We all know people like Howard – people who use baseless bravado to hide their insecurity, people who are so self-absorbed they either don’t know or don’t care about the carnage they inflict on family and friends as the lurch through life. In that sense, “Uncut Gems” is an accurate slice of life. But that doesn’t make this film insightful or profound. It just adds to our trauma as we’re forced to observe the fast-moving train wreck. The dialogue is staggering in its self-indulgence. If the f-bombs were removed, the running time would be about 20 minutes. The profanity isn’t shocking or offensive, just monotonous. My guess is that this is one of those films that is adored by professional film critics, but will generate “Huh? What? ” from a lot of regular movie-goers. If that’s the case, “Uncut Gems” almost makes me believe in populism.

Watched today in cinema. And won't really recommend such stupid movie. Refers to veganism culture (my opinion) but very boring, cheap. not worth watching. Deri ceket tuerkiye. Deri ceket kadın. The film begins with an orchestral flourish, the camera almost sprinting above the luscious grass as it hurries towards its radiantly twirling protagonist, filmed on this green field against a backdrop of jagged mountains. Then the scene cuts to a close-up of the star, Julie Andrews, and she trills, “The hills are alive with the sound of music, ” arms outstretched in rapture. Here, all alone by a brook, among the saplings, coursing along the brow of a hill, this odd crop-haired figure in a childish pinafore seems to be going through an epiphany of sorts, communing with the purity of the elements—fresh air, clear water, intact blades of grass. Watching the film on repeat, we know that the mountains represent more than this—they stand for an idealised, supra-national sphere away from politics; away from tyranny, most of all. The heights and isolation of the landscape surrounding Maria exist in stark contrast to the skulduggery of mankind in the valleys, which are alive with music, sure, but mostly Nazism. The hills also stand for simplicity, away from the difficulties of religion, sexuality, and politics: no decisions to be made here, no sides to pick. “I go to the hills, when my heart is lonely, ” trills Maria as she strides over the horizon filmed from below, “I know I will hear what I’ve heard before. My heart will be blessed with the sound of music—and I’ll sing once more. ” The idea of the mountains as a place of healing, of soul-searching and recovery, a resort for spiritual and psychological well being, is not a completely modern one, but has flourished fairly recently. In eighteenth and nineteenth century Britain, doctors recommended taking the sea air rather than ask their patients to brave the mountain climes—and the vertiginous drops of North Wales and the Lake District were valued more for the adventure they offered to a new generation of tourists, as well as for their embodiment of the picturesque and the sublime. In later years, the great sanatoriums of Europe and the USA sprang up after the bacillus that caused tuberculosis was identified by Robert Kock in 1882: these places promised safe quarantining, a hermeneutic design, and lashings of good mountain air. A year before this, Johannna Spyri’s Heidi embodied the essence of fresh mountain living, its protagonist discovering happiness with the kid goats that roam the mountaintops and gaily befriending the rough-mannered inhabitants of the hills in all their bucolic simplicity. When Heidi is taken back to Zurich she sickens until she appears ghostly, and is hastily returned to the mountain in order to avert certain death. While there, the child receives her infirm friend Clara to stay, and the invalid is miraculously found able to walk. The book was made into several TV series, cartoons, and films, including a popular version starring Shirley Temple in 1937. It’s worth adding that the Alps—representing a terrain between France, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, and Germany—carry a numinous political meaning, a liminal logos, referring back, perhaps, to the statelessness that Maria finds so enchanting in The Sound of Music. Into this land skulks Georges, the antihero of Quentin Dupieux’s grisly and delectable Deerskin. As we glimpse him towards the start of the movie, attempting to dispose of a whole jacket down a toilet that overflows as he flushes it repeatedly and maniacally prods the hated coat further down into the toilet bowl, this is a man who clearly has problems in severe need of exorcism. We gather from some beautifully elliptical moments—voicemails, information let slip in conversation—that Georges’ wife has finished with him. He retreats to the mountainside, to start his life anew. But the wonderful trick that Dupieux plays on us—a rug-pull to an audience expecting any sort of trite We Bought A Zoo -isms from this set-up—is to have Georges sink further into his folly, or rather to branch his madness and weltschmerz out into new, alarming directions. The restorative properties of the mountainside are ignored; the idea of regeneration embraced too soon. Dupieux shows us a diseased man, someone who cannot see his own environment except as a facet of his own breakdown. In this he is reminiscent of Philip Larkin’s “The Old Fools”: “crouching below / Extinction’s alp... never perceiving / How near it is. ” In this beautiful, timeless space, Georges chooses to fixate on a hideous suede jacket, bedecked with grotesque tassels and fringes, giving him the air of a pathetic cowboy. He makes it his life’s mission to become the only person in the world who owns a jacket—a manifestly impossible task, which involves anything from stealing jackets off strangers to offing random people he sees wearing jackets. Dupieux’s intelligence here is exceptional: this is a simple story, and one driven by an absurd premise. But the director is upending absurd ideas of ‘happily ever after, ’ and of life decisions that prompt a kind of blossoming after a fallow period. On the contrary, if Georges finds a new tack here, it is an alarming, truly insane one—and the way he indulges it shows him to be venal and truly without morals, as well as deeply out of touch. (Dupieux has fun with this: the town seems to be set in a kind of temporal aspic, Georges’ fashions are from a bygone era, and the character’s lack of technical know-how sees him befuddled by rudimentary gadgetry. ) This idea subverts our understanding of masculinity, or rather of filmic masculinity, with a hero who learns and changes. Dupieux shows us someone who may have changed, or who may be deepening his very worst tendencies: paranoia, deceit, scheming, thieving. It’s a blistering, and obviously hilarious, portrait of a wholly diseased masculinity. Dupieux underlines this by having Georges pair up with Denise, a far younger barmaid who is studying to be a film editor. She offers to cut the footage Georges has filmed with his Steadicam, of himself in his vile deerskin ensemble, and of him taking out various villagers he meets who are so unfortunate as to be wearing a jacket near him. We see to what extent Georges is willing to cheat Denise out of her money to get his terrible snuff film made—although she is savvy enough to be onto him, she also has some understanding of the world, and perhaps some artistic talent. If Denise is taken in at all by Georges, it’s because of her enthusiasm and her desire for a project, for excitement rather than because of an all-consuming obsession, as is the case with Georges. Her ability to connect contrasts with the way he only interacts with people as facets of his own malady. Of course, Deerskin is a comedy—a sick and absurdist comedy, certainly, but a very, very funny one. It’s this mode, rejecting smugness and self-seriousness, and instead embracing a lemony worldview, that makes Deerskin such a potent rejoinder to all the cliches it is playing off and thumbing its nose at. The film’s beginning is in fact a scene from its middle: the movie blurs the lines between beginning, middle, and end, suggesting that humans don’t ‘grow’ in the way a narrative of restoration might expect of them. In this world, there is barely any social justice; there are few jobs; the racial politics of the place seem to codify a Vichy-style France of white people, in old, musty decors. We know the internet exists in this universe, but we see precious little modernity: this makes its characters tropes; Jean Dujardin, playing Georges, essentially figures as a fundamental man—a devastated man at that. The film’s hilarious and surprising last scene takes us right out into the open air, onto a field of luscious green, where Georges and Denise are to film a scene for their movie. The deadly shock of the events that follow is made all the more juicy, all the more preposterous for their setting in this pristine environment. The hills are alive with vengeful murder—and Dupieux will whistle once more. Deerskin. Directed by Quentin Dupieux, performances by Jean Dujardin and Adèle Haenel, Atelier de Production, 2019.

This gave me goosebumps. This is an AMAZING MOVIE that must be watched by every single male in a western nation. It showcases how men are ripped apart and destroyed by a system of divorce that is massively biased and rigged against them. I don't think that was the intention of the movie, but it is the result.
Bombshell kicks Hustlers to the curb. Better acting and subject matter. Congratulations Charlize. I only gave it a 5 because I wasn't much impressed by either the acting (from some talented people) it felt almost phoned in as if they were in a rush to get this film "into the can" or the writing. I have never watched Fox and so I don't know ho w true to character Theron's portrayal was of Kelly but I did see an interview of her in which she said she had to lower her voice to sound more like Kelly. IMO, she shouldn't have done that. It was distracting. All in all, I left in the middle. I saw "The Loudest Voice" and I lost interest in this film quickly. I didn't feel it added anything new to what I was already aware of and Ailes' behavior was so disgusting I saw no reason to subject myself to more. Actually, I thought "The Loudest Voice" told this story better.
