Uncut Gems is a 2019 American crime thriller directed by Josh and Benny Safdie, who co-wrote the screenplay with Ronald Bronstein. The film stars Adam Sandler, Kevin Garnett, Lakeith Stanfield, Julia Fox, Mike Francesa, Idina Menzel, and Eric Bogosian. The plot follows Howard Ratner, a jeweler and gambling addict in New York City's Diamond District, who gets in over his head with loan sharks and must retrieve an expensive gem he purchased in order to pay off his debts. Filming for the project took place from September to November 2018. The original score was composed by Daniel Lopatin.  Uncut Gems had its world premiere at the Telluride Film Festival on August 30, 2019, and was theatrically released on December 13, 2019 by A24. The film received critical acclaim, with its screenplay, direction, Sandler's performance and Darius Khondji's cinematography receiving much of the praise, and was chosen by the National Board of Review as one of the top ten films of 2019, with Sandler also winning Best Actor. It became one of A24's highest-grossing releases, having made $43 million.
