Marty Mauser, a young man with a dream no one respects, goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness. A directorial triumph by Josh Safdie, half the famed indie filmmaking power-duo the Safdie Brothers, and starring screen icons Timothee Chalamet, Gwenyth Paltrow, and for the first time on screen, Tyler (The Creator) Okonma. The film is loosely based on the life of table tennis champion, hustler, entertainer, and entrepreneur Marty Reisman. In preparation for the role, Timothée Chalamet trained in table tennis for about seven years, while working on some of modern cinema’s biggest hits.
