Marty Supreme: Timothée Chalamet, Josh Safdie, and the Art of the Hustle
Wednesday, 8 April, 2026
Send us Fan MailWe're back with a full review of Marty Supreme, one of the most talked-about Oscar-nominated films of the year — and honestly, one we'd been looking forward to digging into since the nominations dropped. We break down everything: Timothée Chalamet's career-redefining performance, the Safdie Brothers' meticulous directorial vision, the stunning period authenticity of the set design, and what makes this film feel like something genuinely different in the current landscape of hustle-driven storytelling.The conversation covers the real-life influences behind the film, the themes of ambition and dreaming big that run through every scene, and what makes Josh Safdie's solo direction so compelling: a meticulous, choreographed visual style that gives Marty Supreme its distinct energy. We also get into the supporting cast, some surprising cameos, and what A24's continued awards success means for the kinds of films that are getting made and celebrated right now.We don't agree on everything — the ending sparked some debate — but both of us came away feeling like this was one of the stronger entries in this year's Oscar class. If you haven't seen Marty Supreme yet, this episode will give you plenty of reasons to change that. And if you have, we think you'll find a lot to agree with — and maybe a few things to push back on.We also spend some time in the back half of the episode talking about the broader state of cinema: what AI means for the future of filmmaking, how marketing shapes public perception of prestige films, and why we still believe a great year at the movies is worth celebrating. All 10 Best Picture nominees this year are worth your time, and Marty Supreme is near the top of that list.Support the showOh Brother Podcast:Support the Show!
