Uncut Gems 2019

I haven't seen this film yet, but trailer and synopsis remind me of Richie Nektalov ('Richie Rich'), featured in the premiere episode of Streets of Dreams with Marcus Lemonis about New York City's diamond district. Nektalov is a real life, third generation jewellery scion (and son of a district stalwart) who wanted to break out in the staid family business—eventually becoming known as ‘jeweler to the stars’ with plenty of bling bling, glitz, glamour and social media. I don't see any references to Nektalov in Uncut Gems press, but it would be interesting if there were a connection. Nektalov carries plenty of his own front page tabloid coverage.
