Making Uncut Gems with Josh & Benny Safdie and Crew | NYFF57

[@jimmybrunson2553]

I love their down to earth energy, I can see how they get such raw and real performances from their actors - such an unpretentious and collaborative ethos. Their love for the medium is infectious

[@deiggo3877]

benny sitting on the mic the first second he arrives is the energy that I like about them

[@LegendTwentySeven]

I haven't seen a movie that got me as excited as Uncut Gems since Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (no joke). I've been listening to the soundtrack on a loop now for days. Thank you for existing (all of you). Cinema needs you all!

[@stifox1]

Benny when he set on the mic 😭😭😭😂😂😂

[@IIRemy]

daniel, just wanted to say that your answer was an excellent insight into the thought process behind the soundtrack. it makes sense that there's this almost ignorantly blissful major key sound since it reflects what's happening inside howard's head, and it's interesting how keeping it sincere is its own task. also, capturing the indescribable is fascinating to me, in that aesthetics are a powerful tool in aiding the process, especially through music. it's the language of emotion and it seems able to communicate the indescribable in ways that words cannot.

[@seancorrigan7448]

Adam Sandler was incredible in this film.

[@tamie341]

Agreed. He became Howard, I was along for the ride til the end. Masterpiece.

[@kemckelv]

it did not disappoint me. Finall Sandler challenges himself in this one and still entertains with the same ole sandler moves

[@theoschommer3530]

Should have been nominated for an Oscar

[@ajsoprano526]

Wow! Daniel looking SVELTE

[@jumpzelnor5123]

svelte AND deeply esoteric. mama likey

[@BrutalistJr]

wtf Daniel looks so good. boy lost some weight.

[@victormustin2547]

These guys are the best

[@kingjohnny7215]

they are plagiarists, safdie's stole uncut gems from Abel ferrara 1991 bad lieutenant. Bad Lieutenant + the Hot Rock = Uncut Gems

The movie got better and better as it went on.

Love these guys love the movie and love the SAfdie bros!!!!!

[@startreker9]

I would love an interview with Keith William Richards (Phil). Can't believe he is a first time actor, he carried so much realism to the film

[@tcahyulcocr]

benny’s shoes, tho. i c u

Loved the interview just wished the interviewer would refrain from giving away certain things in the movie even if they're not major plot points

[@garrettmeadows2273]

If Adam Sandler doesn't win the Oscar for Best Actor, then no one should win. Phenomenal film and performance.

[@vishnu2407]

The Oscars are a sham, he's worth more

[@yigitb.8958]

Even interview looks like directed by Safdie Brothers

[@VuotoPneumaNN]

Nah, not enough people talking at the same time

Yes!

[@bradleyspiteri9808]

I love this movie so much that I digitally painted howard and posted it on my Instagram account @on_art_pilot

[@KenDanieli]

To the host: Do not ask a question and then babble a paragraph.

[@myaheadhurts2]

what do you mean, he doesn't do that at all

[@vishnu2407]

He's very respectful and doesn't do that tho?

[@JanAndhisfiets]

FOOD

[@benitovercini8406]

the craziest thing about this interview is that the very average looking producer guy next to Daniel Lopatin is married to one of the most beautiful women on the planet

[@LYDLNX]

why did the casting director kiss the interviewer.... he seemed super caught off guard

[@Zeegoner]

It was normal

[@jessicadesmond-robitaille5972]

First? Nice...

[@Kaisersozze]

Was Sandler too good to be there?

[@charlienovacastor5652]

Maybe he just couldn't be there, why you gotta be a dick?

[@uricholavarria3011]

He's not there probably because he's an actor. And every one here works behind the camera.

[@A-Dubs398]

He's too good for his home.

[@kingjohnny7215]

Pastiche vs Plagiarism? Do the Safdie's know the difference between an original story & an uncredited (copy right infringement) remake ?, Safdie's need to pay Abel Ferrara & give him screen credit, Story by- Abel Ferrara, ..really fed up of plagiarist "Sampling" film making, time for new filmmakers to give credit where credit is due, as in sampling music.? Do the film makers know that they are not entitled to other's intellectual property? are they that entitled or stoned? or just thieves? do they think if they watched alot of films growing up, their memories of those movies were not their ideas?? want to make a remake , give screen credit & monetary compensation to the original writer. No such thing as copycat art, that's called a forgery, a fake as the fake rolex's in uncut gems?, or going to a museum full of forgeries. ? I want my money back. Rip off !

[@FirstNameLastName-kt3zn]

This interviewer sure likes to hear herself speak.

[@JuliesCookingShow]

that's not the interviewer, it's the casting director from the film...

[@vishnu2407]

Did you watch the interview before commenting

[@danielalt7508]

The movie is badly directed as it is impossible to focus on everything. Every character on movie talking the same time. This makes it hard to listen who is saying what, and which has value to the plot.

[@vishnu2407]

Hahahahahah

[@vishnu2407]

My condolences

[@charlie4947]

The talking adds to the distressing and anxiety inducing tone. We feel a lot less comfortable when we dont know where to focus. I have no doubt that this was intentional.

[@statcous]

You can hear everything that is valuable to the plot. If you can't hear it, then it doesn't matter that much and it's just there as a layer of sound to stack up the anxiety.
