Marty Supreme - Josh Safdie

The young Marty Mauser bluffs and acts arrogantly his way through life. Driven by boundless ambition, he does everything in his power to realize his big dream. Modesty is foreign to him and giving up is not in his dictionary. He even sees seducing a real movie star as a real possibility. That no one takes him seriously does not stop Marty from going to extremes and proving what he is worth. 'Marty Supreme' is loosely based on the memoirs of table tennis legend Marty Reisman. Regisseur Josh Safdie deliberately does not choose a classic, truthful biopic. Timothée Chalamet (last year still Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown) has been training intensively for the role of ping pong player Marty Mauser since 2018 - on the set of Dune he had a ping pong table to practice in between - and delivers an unparalleled performance. He was able to receive De Golden Globe for Beste Acteur, he just missed the Oscar.
