About This Item
In 1950s Manhattan, young shoe salesman Marty Mauser (Timothée Chalamet) had preternatural skill at table tennis, was never at a loss for a hustle-and would do anything to be recognized as globally ranked in a sport that nobody cared about. The lengths he went to and loved ones he stepped on in pursuit of his dream are laid bare in Josh Safdie's stylish study, loosely inspired by the life of Marty Reisman; Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A'zion, Kevin O'Leary, Fran Drescher, Abel Ferrara co-star. 149 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.
