A masterpiece by the Safdie brothers, featuring another career-best performance/role by the Sandman. Also DP Darius Khondji’s visuals are stunning and Daniel Lopatin’s (OPN) soundtrack really slaps!
OTD in 2019,
This classic from the Safdie Brothers was released along with a staggering 560 uses of the word 'Fuck,' beating Scorcese's Casino by more than 100 and ranking #4 all time.
What's your favorite line?
FUNNY PAGES, the dark comedy produced by the Safdie brothers set in New Jersey's countercultural scene, is now available on DVD and Blu-ray. With exclusive stickers in the first thousand Blu-ray copies.
You know how the Safdie Brothers are, like, floored-accelerator-down-the-highway? EMILY THE CRIMINAL is like if the Safdies got caught in LA traffic. It’s pretty great.
My opinion on this movie hasn't changed, I really, really liked it. That said, I much preferred Good Time, which the Safdie Brothers also directed.
It felt like everyone was shouting at me while watching Uncut Gems, it was so suffocating, haha.
Very excited for this movie! If you are looking for another great Robert Pattinson film - check out Good Time directed by the Safdie Brothers.

TBH my dream project would be the Safdie brothers doing a movie on the Armenian Genocide focusing on a small-time merchant trying to survive in Constantinople.

Safdie Brothers are GOATs for giving both Robert Pattinson (in Good Time) and Adam Sandler a chance to really shine in dramas so they could truly shed the decades long image they had.
