From Hollywood to Home: Black Voices in Entertainment
- Relentless premise: Marty Mauser is a young dreamer who goes to hell and back chasing greatness, delivering intense stakes.
- Magnetic, career best turn from Timothée Chalamet, called one of the decade's finest performances.
- Electric score, razor editing, rich visuals, tense humor; feels like an unofficial trilogy companion to Good Time and Uncut Gems.
What it’s about: “Marty Mauser, a young man with a dream no one respects, goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness.” —IMDb
Starring: Timothée Chalamet, Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A’zion, Kevin O’Leary, Tyler Okonma, Abel Ferrara, Fran Drescher
Fan review: “It’s unhinged, off-the-leash, electrifying shit. So tense, so funny, so well-paced, and Chalamet’s performance is one of the best of the decade yet, and so damn magnetic. The score is straight gas, the editing is incredible, it’s got such a rich visual presentation, I could go on and on. Stressful as hell, and completes the sort of unofficial trilogy of it, Good Time, and Uncut Gems; each one has something different to offer. Earns every minute of its long runtime. So dang good.” —Z-Eli127
