Simple interest

A silly spy, a rescue mission, a plot set in Goa... Happy Patel seemed to have it all, yet the only memorable bit is Aamir Khan

In Marty Supreme, director and co-writer Josh Safdie establishes his hero as a liar and adulterer within minutes. Marty, played by Timothée Chalamet, is also self-centred, and obsessed with table tennis.

Over the course of the film, he will prey on every person he can and leave a trail of destruction behind him as he tries to fund his table tennis career. On paper, Marty Mauser is everything a hero shouldn't be. Yet he always has the audience on his side.
