This Tuesday on The Run-Through, Chioma Nnadi sits down with British Vogue's November 2025 cover star, Gwyneth Paltrow, to talk Josh Safdie's Marty Supreme—undoubtedly one of the most anticipated films of the year.The riveting drama, about an ambitious young table tennis player named Marty Mauser (Timothée Chalamet)—and the ever-more-egregious risks he takes to prove his, well, supremacy—co-stars Paltrow as Kay Stone, the glamorous former movie star whom Mauser romances in London, then New York. (The cast also includes Kevin O'Leary, Odessa A'zion, Fran Drescher, Sandra Bernhard, and Tyler, the Creator.)In her conversation with Chioma, Gwyneth talks about being wowed by the script, co-written by Safdie and Ronald Bronstein; feeling nervous to be on a film set again; Miyako Bellizzi's beautiful costumes; Chalamet's beautiful skin; and the kind of role that she'd be intrigued to take on next.Plus, the two talk about more great fashion moments from Gwyneth's filmography (the Calvin Klein in Sliding Doors! The Donna Karan in Great Expectations!); the wellness world's recent obsession with protein and fiber; Gwyneth's refreshing thoughts on aging (“I don't want to try to look like I'm 28 years old”); and more.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

"The Smashing Machine" is a biographical sports drama film written, directed, produced, and edited by Benny Safdie. It stars Dwayne Johnson as former amateur wrestler and MMA fighter Mark Kerr, alongside Emily Blunt as Kerr's girlfriend Dawn Staples, with Ryan Bader, Bas Rutten, and Oleksandr Usyk in supporting roles. The film had its world premiere in the main competition of the 82nd Venice International Film Festival, where it won the Silver Lion and received positive reviews for the performances, notably Johnson's committed and transformational work and Safdie's re-creation of the world of MMA and the UFC during its early days. Filmmaker Safdie was kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about his experience working on the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in theaters from A24.

Smashing machine: življenje v ringu je biografski film o koščku kariere enega prvih borcev lige UFC je poligon, v katerem zvezdnik Dwayne Johnson pod taktirko režiserja Bennyja Safdieja izkazuje svoje doslej skrite igralske veščine. Film je prejel srebrnega leva v Benetkah. V prvih kadrih filma Smashing Machine: Življenje v ringu spoznamo glavnega junaka Marka Kerra, kako v intervjuju razlaga o zmagi na turnirju v Braziliji, medtem ko se na platnu nizajo podobe njegovih dvobojev. Piše se leto 1997 in liga ultimativnega pretepanja UFC si ustvarja ime. Mark je rokoborec, a to so bitke mešanih borilnih veščin, tako da se spoprime tudi z boksarji, karateisti in mojstri drugih tehnik. Njegova mogočna fizična podoba vključuje tudi nenehne podplutbe na obrazu in redne obiske zdravnika. Prav pri teh najprej zaznamo, kakšne težave pestijo Marka. Režiser Benny Safdie, ki se je prvič lotil ustvarjanja filma brez podpore brata Josha, uporablja dokumentaristične pristope in veliko kadrov, posnetih iz roke. Ti so zaznamovali tudi njegove prejšnje filme, kot sta Dobri časi z Robertom Pattinsonom in Nebrušeni dragulji z Adamom Sandlerjem. To filmu doda stopnjo nevrotičnosti, ki odseva psiho glavnega junaka, kakor tudi njegova razmerja z bližnjimi ter njegov odnos do kariere. Za gledalca je rezultat nelagodje in to velja tako za nasilne prizore borb, kot za čustvene scene med Markom in njegovo partnerko Dawn, kjer ta avtorski pristop gledalcu daje občutek, da se vtika v njuno zasebnost. Na družbeni ravni sporočila filma Smashing Machine so številne vzporednice z grozljivko En in edini, ki je še vedno na sporedu v kinematografih. V obeh sta namreč v ospredju gladiatorska narava športa in neustavljivo stremljenje k zmagi ne glede na posledice, ki jih to pusti na človekovem telesu in umu. Na psihološki ravni je film študija posameznika, ki je ujet v to sceno, kakor tudi razcepa med ambicijami in zmožnostmi ter nezmožnostjo vzpostavitve čustvene povezave z ljudmi, ki nimajo istih izkušenj. Smashing Machine na prvi pogled tukaj ne prikaže veliko novega, saj so filmi, kot sta Rokoborec in lanski Železni krempelj, predstavili podobne, še bolj tragične zgodbe. A vseeno najde področje, na katerem izstopa. Ne glede na to, kako močno so se omenjeni filmi trudili pokazati negativen vpliv takih športov na človeka, so borbe praviloma posnete tako, da poveličujejo ali pa vsaj fetišizirajo nasilje in moč. Tukaj borbe niso niti malo seksi, temveč so brutalne in boleče in povsem jasno je, da je ne glede na rezultat borec na koncu zlomljen. K temu veliko pripomore tudi Dwayne Johnson v nedvomno najboljši vlogi kariere. Nekdanji in še zmeraj občasni prvak wrestlinga je v zadnjih desetletjih postal eden največjih hollywoodskih zvezdnikov. Čeprav se je občasno preizkusil v dramskih vlogah, je koval uspehe z akcijskimi filmi in komedijami, kjer je igral variacijo istega lika – močnega, stoičnega, skrivno širokosrčnega in zabavnega mišičnjaka. Njegov Mark Kerr ni tak. Je močan in prijazen, a tudi zagrenjen in pod stresom in nagnjen k nasilnim izpadom. Preobrazbo dodatno potencira maska, ki z nekaj protetiki in lasuljo izdatno spremeni Johnsonovo podobo. Nič manj izvrstna ni Emily Blunt v vlogi stereotipne in nerazumevajoče Dawn, njune skupne scene pa – vsaj v prvi polovici filma – še dodatno prizemljijo lika in predvsem Kerrove težave. A žal je film nekoliko predolg in v zadnji tretjini izgubi tempo, s tem pa tudi do takrat prepričljivo ustvarjeno pristnost. To se še posebej pozna pri zadnjem prepiru med Markom in Dawn, ko se lika že toliko časa vrtita v krogu, da vse skupaj zdrsne preblizu limonadam. Tako film proti koncu nekoliko pokvari vtis, a se vseeno suvereno podaja v tekmo za različne zlate kipce. Režiser Safdie je že slavil v Benetkah, Johnsonu pa skoraj zagotovo ne uide nominacija za oskarja.

Benny Safdie (Uncut Gems, The Curse) joins this weeks The Filmmakers Podcast to discuss the challenging process of directing his solo feature debut, the gritty sports biopic The Smashing Machine, starring Dwayne Johnson as MMA legend Mark Kerr. Fellow filmmakers Giles Alderson and Dom Lenoir sit with Benny and dive into the Safdie style, his approach to directing actors and making raw, kinetic cinema. As one half of the acclaimed Safdie Brothers duo, Benny co-directed, co-wrote, and edited films that make your heart pound out of your chest. We're talking about the incredible, neon-drenched chase thriller "Good Time," and the anxiety-inducing, chaotic masterpiece "Uncut Gems," starring Adam Sandler. These films established a gritty, naturalistic style, full of propulsive energy, often focusing on outsiders desperately struggling in the urban landscape of New York. But he's not just a master behind the camera! As an actor, he has completely transformed and disappeared into roles, giving incredible performances like the troubled Nick Nikas in "Good Time," the compassionate Joel Wachs in Paul Thomas Anderson's "Licorice Pizza," and the brilliant physicist Edward Teller in Christopher Nolan's blockbuster, "Oppenheimer." He's even popped up in TV like "Obi-Wan Kenobi" and co-created, wrote, directed, and starred in the critically praised Showtime series, "The Curse." And now, he's stepped out as a solo director, writer, and editor with the highly anticipated film, "The Smashing Machine." This intense biographical sports drama, which premiered to acclaim at the Venice Film Festival, stars a completely transformed Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as pioneering MMA fighter Mark Kerr, alongside the brilliant Emily Blunt and other great actors. It's a grittier, unflinching look at a champion struggling with addiction and the pressures of the sport. He's a true filmmaking polymath who brings a raw, authentic urgency to everything he touches.

Editors - Vikash Patel, Cedric Nairn-Smith and Kyle Reiter ACE Black Rabbit editors Viks, Ced and Kyle worked independently during post but still managed to collectively craft a complex narrative that stayed consistent in tone and style throughout the run of the series.  And while new guy Reiter described feeling like a "bench player" on the team, Viks and Ced benefited from a long working relationship that began with Viks mentoring Ced as his former assistant.  Regardless of any of their past experiences, star and producer Jason Bateman tasked the post team with creating a vibe that had tendencies drawn from Bateman's Netflix hit, Ozark but also from dark comedies like the Safdie brothers' Uncut Gems. Black Rabbit tells the tale of two brothers, Vince and Jake Friedken, former bandmates in a successful musical act whose lives went down different paths in the years that followed.  Rising-star restaurateur Jake is forced into New York's criminal underworld when his chaotic brother returns to town with loan sharks on his trail, opens the door to escalating dangers that threaten to bring down everything he's built. VIKASH PATEL In addition to his work on Black Rabbit, Viks won an Emmy® in 2008 for his work on TOP CHEF and was nominated for an Emmy® in 2020 for his work on OZARK.  Viks has also edited series that include THE SYMPATHIZER (2024), THE MORNING SHOW (2019), BATES MOTEL (2015-16) and LONGMIRE (2012-14). CEDRIC NAIRN-SMITH Prior to Black Rabbit, Cedric's editorial work could be seen on DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN (2025), MOON KNIGHT (2022), LISEY'S STORY (2021), THE BOYS (2019-2020) and BATES MOTEL (2015-2017).

Ellin Bessner will return next week. Today, we're bringing you the latest episode of Menschwarmers, The CJN's Jewish sports podcast. Subscribe to Menschwarmers here. In July, the New York Yankees drafted a Canadian shortstop from Wyoming, Ont., named Core Jackson. They did so despite knowing that Jackson, as a 17-year-old freshman at the University of Nebraska, had drawn a swastika on a Jewish student's dorm room while he was, he later told The Athletic, "blackout drunk." But this isn't a run-of-the-mill case of antisemitism. By all accounts, according to the Yankees' ground scouts and the recent investigation by The Athletic that ran Aug. 20, Jackson was, simply, acting like an ignorant drunk teenager, and was forthright about the incident with teams before the draft. The team did significant due diligence, engaging with New York's Jewish community and sending scouts to learn about Jackson's family and personality. The resulting story is less about the insipid rise of casual antisemitism, and more about the power of forgiveness when people—especially teenagers—make mistakes and try to do better. Keith Law, a longtime baseball journalist and former front office worker with the Toronto Blue Jays, broke this story for The Athletic. He joins us to share his impressions of Core Jackson and how the Yankees are viewing this opportunity. After that, podcast hosts Gabe and Jamie run through this year's hottest Jewish sports movies, from Happy Gilmore 2 to both Safdie brothers' award-season offerings, The Smashing Machine and Marty Supreme. Then they give a quick NFL preview and recap Zach Hyman's ceremonial opening of the new ice hockey rink at the Schwartz/Reisman Jewish Community Centre in Vaughan.

The Author Events Series presents Carrie Rickey | A Complicated Passion, The Life and Work of Agnès Varda  REGISTER In conversation with Gary Kramer Born in Los Angeles, Carrie Rickey is an award-winning film critic, art critic, and film historian. She was the film critic at the Philadelphia Inquirer for twenty-five years and has also written for Artforum, Art in America, Film Comment, the New York Times, the Village Voice, and Politico. She has taught at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the University of Pennsylvania. She lives in Philadelphia. A Complicated Passion, The Life and Work of Agnès Varda is the first major biography of the storied French filmmaker, who was hailed by Martin Scorsese as ''one of the Gods of cinema.'' Over the course of her sixty-five-year career, the longest of any female filmmaker, Agnès Varda (1928 – 2019) wrote and directed some of the most acclaimed films of her era, from her tour de force Cléo from 5 to 7 (1962), a classic of modernist cinema, to the beloved documentary The Gleaners and I (2000) four decades later. She helped to define the French New Wave, inspired an entire generation of filmmakers, and was recognized with major awards at the Cannes, Berlin, and Venice Film Festivals, as well as an honorary Oscar at the Academy Awards. In this lively biography, former Philadelphia Inquirer film critic Carrie Rickey explores the ''complicated passions'' that informed Varda's charmed life and indelible work. Rickey traces Varda's three remarkable careers - as still photographer, as filmmaker, and as installation artist. She explains how Varda was a pioneer in blurring the lines between documentary and fiction, using the latest digital technology and carving a path for women in the movie industry. She demonstrates how Varda was years ahead of her time in addressing sexism, abortion, labor exploitation, immigrant rights, and race relations with candor and incisiveness. She makes clear Varda's impact on contemporary figures like Ava DuVernay, Greta Gerwig, Barry Jenkins, the Safdie brothers, and Martin Scorsese, who called her one of the Gods of cinema. And she delves into Varda's incredibly rich social life with figures such as Harrison Ford, Jean-Luc Godard, Jim Morrison, Susan Sontag, and Andy Warhol, and her nearly forty-year marriage to the celebrated director Jacques Demy. A Complicated Passion is the vibrant biography that Varda, regarded by many as the greatest female filmmaker of all time, has long deserved.

Oneohtrix Point Never with Gastr del Sol

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast, we've got a fantastic chat featuring three boundary-pushing musicians that turns into a lovefest: It's Daniel Lopatin, better known as Oneohtrix Point Never, along with David Grubbs and Jim O'Rourke, who were known together as Gastr del Sol. Lopatin has created an incredible body of experimental records over the past 20 or so years. His woozy, sample-heavy early material had him pegged as the inventor of vaporwave, but he never stays in the same musical place very long. He broke through to a different audience with soundtracks for the Safdie brothers' movies Good Time and Uncut Gems, and Lopatin is also heavily responsible for the sound of The Weeknd's records, where he's credited as an executive producer. The tenth Oneohtrix Point Never album, called Again, came out late last year, and once again it found Lopatin utilizing a new set of inspirations, one of which was the post-rock movement of the 1990s, which figures heavily into today's conversation. More on that in a minute, but first check out “Again,” the title track from the latest Oneohtrix Point Never album. Featured on that track was none other than Jim O'Rourke, an experimental musician and producer perhaps best known to the pop-music world for working on Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and  A Ghost Is Born. But O'Rourke's cv is far too vast to dive into here, and the focus of this conversation is his 1990s collaboration with fellow musician David Grubbs in a band called Gastr del Sol. That duo burned bright for a few years, amassing a catalog that's difficult to pin down, ranging as it does from arch orchestral pop to more rangy, experimental songs. They disbanded in 1998, leaving the world on a high note with their poppiest yet perhaps weirdest set of songs, Camofleur. Gastr del Sol's legend has only grown in the meantime, and they finally got around to releasing some new-old material just this year, in the form of a combination live album/rarities set called We Have Dozens of Titles. True to their ethos, it's neither a standard odds and ends package or a greatest hits, but rather combines an excellent live recording—of what turned out to be their final concert—and songs that had been previously orphaned on various compilations. Check out “The Seasons Reverse” here, which is referenced in this chat. Speaking of this chat… Talkhouse conversations are usually more two-way streets than this one, but it turns out that Daniel Lopatin is a huge Gastr del Sol geek, so he ends up asking most of the questions. He's got deep-seated opinions and interesting theories on their music: They chat about getting into music, about specific passages in Gastr songs, about the idea of indie-rock as a genre, and about the time Gastr del Sol was asked to license a song for a tentacle porn movie. Oh, and Daniel calls Gastr del Sol's music trashy. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Daniel Lopatin, Jim O'Rourke, and David Grubbs for chatting.

Director and actor Benny Safdie is probably best known for co-directing the film Uncut Gems, but he's also acted in Oppenheimer, Licorice Pizza, and one of host Brittany Luse's personal favorites: Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret. In his latest project, Safdie co-created and acts in Showtime's The Curse. It's an intensely uncomfortable examination of the smoke and mirrors behind your favorite home improvement shows, but it's also a marriage drama – and it picks apart our desire to seem like good people, rather than being good people. Host Brittany Luse sits down with Safdie to learn what makes home improvement shows both soothing and sinister — and the difference between do-gooders and seem-gooders. They also play a game where they're forced to distinguish reality from fiction.
