Uncut Gems (15)

Adam Sandler as a jewellery dealer holding up a gold chain

Adam Sandler plays a jewellery dealer with a severe gambling addiction in this intense drama from the Safdie Brothers.

This mesmerising and overwhelming drama directed by the Safdie Brothers (Good Time) sees Adam Sandler as Howard Ratner, a dealer selling jewellery to the rich and famous. But every time he makes a sale instead of paying his ever growing debts he places high-stakes bets and hopes for a positive outcome.

Balancing family, friendships, business and the debt collectors makes for a tough time for Howard.
