I Took this photo of the actual
Norman Rockwell painting at the museum well after it had just become a meme. It was weird to see in person. It was also the only one surrounded by all these young kids laughing and ogling… It was kinda amazing.

One of the best feelings in life is approval from the butcher counter. I’m doing something right!

Jimmy Cliff! He’s so alive here and so much emotion and what a performance and an incredible movie too. This album soundtrack has been a constant in my life. Just the best.

I feel like having a waiting room at a psychiatrist office is like some form of a joke/test. Then again that’s probably why I’m there in the first place.

This is a scene I couldn’t figure out where to put in The Smashing Machine but I love it as another moment in Mark’ Life. Enjoy! “And a diet Sprite” Movie is available to watch at home. Link to Apple in Bio with my director commentary and other stuff too. Let the movie 🌊over you!

J’ai rencontré Benny Safdie pour le Monde et c’est très honnêtement une des interviews les plus plaisantes que j’ai faites — le papier est trop court pour tout retranscrire hélas mais j’espère qu’il en rend tout de même compte.

Benny Safdie, réalisateur de « Smashing Machine », dans l’équation du cinéma
Le cinéaste, qui a longtemps hésité entre la physique et le septième art, n’a pas perdu son enthousiasme face à la magie de l’écran.

Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson is one of the most famous people on Earth. His new movie, “The Smashing Machine,” sends him back to his natural habitat: the ring. But for the first time, he's cutting through the tough-guy act and is getting vulnerable. nyti.ms/430UnrS

I think the Open Ai commercials are Trojan horses: Filmic commercials they can feed into their system to replicate “cinematic” language and get around only having stock footage as a base for their models.

So excited for The Smashing Machine Score to be released. Nala Sinephro created a psychoanalytic musical interpretation of the characters feelings and emotions. I feel so lucky to have had this collaboration and for this to be out in the world.

Luckily this is free… after many tries I got it! Never can pass up a Smashing Machine. This is at 42nd street AMC and I can’t believe it’s a real thing. I think there are 4 others too.
