I happened to watch a screener of Marty Supreme, and it’s easily the best movie I’ve seen this year. The movie is a roller coaster ride from beginning to end, like Uncut Gems, and Chalamet delivers a fantastic performance that is funny and endearing, despite his character destroying everything in his path in an attempt to succeed.
There’s still a long way to the Oscars, but it’s clear that Chalamet will be at the ceremony and has a very good chance of winning.
