Marty Supreme review – Timothée Chalamet a smash in spectacular screwball ping-pong nightmare

Following every dizzying spin of Chalamet’s table tennis hustler, Josh Safdie’s whip-crack comedy serves sensational shots – and a smart return by Gwyneth Paltrow This new film from Josh Safdie has the fanatical energy of a 149-minute ping pong rally carried out by a single player running round and round the table. It’s a marathon sprint of gonzo calamities and uproar, a sociopath-screwball nightmare like something by Mel Brooks – only in place of gags, there are detonations of bad taste, cinephile allusions, alpha cameos, frantic deal-making, racism and antisemitism, sentimental yearning and erotic adventures. It’s a farcical race against time where no one needs to eat or sleep. Timothée Chalamet plays Marty Mauser, a spindly motormouth with the glasses of an intellectual, the moustache of a movie star and the physique of a tiny cartoon character (though that could just be the initials). He’s loosely inspired by Marty “The Needle” Reisman, a real-life US table tennis champ from the ...

Taylor Swift Responds To Midnights Becoming Spotify’s Most Played Album In 24 Hours

The singer-songwriter, who is 32 years old, released her most recent studio album, Midnights, on Friday, and she observed as it immediately earned the record of the most-streamed playlist in a single day in the record of Spotify. In addition, on October 22nd, before the clock could strike midnight, Taylor Swift became the artist with the most streams of any album on Spotify in a single day. A tweet from a music streaming service on Friday congratulated Taylor Swift, @taylorswift13. Swift added seven more songs to the album's tracklist just three hours after the album was made available for purchase for the first time, which led to record-breaking sales figures. Swift later replied to the announcement that she surpassed the single-day streaming milestone. Her album is said to have garnered more than the 183 million streams that Bad Bunny's May album Un Verano Sin Ti pulled in, which was the record that previously held the record for most streams in a single day. But before, the record of 176.8 million streams had been set by Drake in 2021 for his long-awaited record, Certified Lover Boy. Swift posed this question to her devoted following on Twitter: "How did I get this fortunate, having you all out here doing something this heart-popping?" I mean, what the heck just took place?!?! Although it is unknown exactly how many streams Taylor garnered with her 10th studio album, the album itself has made its way into the history books of Apple Music. On October 21st, #Midnights broke the record for the most first-day streams for any pop album ever on Apple Music. This record had previously stood since the service's inception. On Twitter, congratulations are for @taylorswift13. Swift's long-term partner Joe Alwyn (writing as William Bowery) contributed to the record, Lana Del Rey, Jack Antonoff, and even actress Zo Kravitz, with whom Swift uploaded a photo this weekend to mark the album's release.
