Summary

For this week's main podcast review, Katie Johnson, Dan Bayer, and Giovanni Lago join me to discuss the latest film from Josh Safdie, "Marty Supreme" starring Timothée Chalamet, Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A'zion, Kevin O'Leary, Tyler Okonma, Abel Ferrara & Fran Drescher. His first solo directing effort since his debut with "The Pleasure of Being Robbed," Josh Safdie delivers a true American sports comedy-drama loosely inspired by the life and career of American table tennis player Marty Reisman. The film had its world premiere as a surprise screening at the New York Film Festival to rave reviews and reactions for its performances, direction, writing, casting, editing, and score, with many hailing it as one of the greatest sports and New York films ever made. What did we think of it?
