I’ve been wanting to explore more of the Safdie Brothers work because GOOD TIME is one of my favorite movies and UNCUT GEMS is such a delight. Their features and shorts are getting pulled from Criterion at the end of the month, I really wanted to get down and watch them. You can see a lot of the techniques that they are exploring with here, which will ultimately make them stand out as directors. Overall, I thought the film was okay at best, but that doesn’t mean I don’t love them as creators.
