I had initially viewed “Uncut Gems” in theaters in the first week of January of 2020 and had chosen to forgo writing a review.

As a devout Christopher Nolan fanboy, one of the most difficult decisions I have ever made in my meaningless life was choosing which Nolan epic I would review first. If you have read any of my first two Top 10 Lists, you’ll know I have a particular affinity for “The Dark Knight”, however “The Prestige”Continue reading “The Prestige (2006) – Movie Review”
