The Curse cast members Emma Stone, Nathan Fielder, Benny Safdie, & Nizhonniya Luxi Austin and Executive Producer Dave McCary discuss the new series with FLC Programmer Dan Sullivan. Learn more: www.filmlinc.org/series/the-c...
In this brilliantly discomfiting collaboration between Nathan Fielder (hot on the heels of his revelatory comic creation The Rehearsal) and Benny Safdie (Uncut Gems, NYFF57; Oppenheimer), Fielder and Emma Stone (La La Land; The Favourite, NYFF56) play Asher and Whitney Siegel, married entrepreneurs (don’t call them gentrifiers!) whose latest plan is to flip houses and convert them into eco-friendly homes for the struggling residents of Española, New Mexico-all for a home improvement-style reality show being overseen by an ingratiating producer (Safdie) with demons of his own. From this premise, which nimbly touches upon inescapable American issues of race, class, and capital, Fielder and Safdie branch out into an increasingly tangled network of ethical and moral gray zones, expertly balancing the tender and the merciless. Following the world premiere of episodes 1-3 at the 61st New York Film Festival, Film at Lincoln Center is pleased to present the remaining seven episodes from this genre-defying, riotously funny series, directed by Fielder and David and Nathan Zellner. An A24/Showtime release.

@evanseesred

The finale was a masterpiece. Best ending I’ve seen in years.

@ThunderGuppies

Love how the host manages to make that first relatively simple question into a convoluted multi paragraph confusing mess that he just leaves the actors with. It’s very artful in its own way. Not many people could do that bad of a job without intention!

@Garbageaf

The interviewer needs to bring his word count down.

@haley2926

It’s so cool they’ve done these screenings and q&as each episode. Especially Benny has really been holding it down and engaging with the fans. This is one of those small but dedicated audience kind of shows and having these outlets for discussion has enhanced the entire experience a lot!

“The slicing of the meat is me giving pieces of myself to people, whether I want to or not, and as a Native person that’s basically what you are doing every day. Whether people choose to eat it is totally up to them. And you ate it.”

@user-ym8fz2mk9m

I'm one minute in and this dude has still not asked his question

@MantasticHams

I definitely feel what Emma said about Whitney and Cara's dialogue really starkly defining Whitney. Its like Cara just by being her honest self and having both a forthrightness AND a measured, distanced relationship with her shines a light so bright on her negative/superficial/artificial traits that they practically set on fire. I really hope to see more of Nizhonniya in the future, shes really amazing. The details about her improvising those important lines were wild, it felt like something that almost could have seeded the whole idea of the show, but instead was just her unscripted interpretation of her characters internality. Thats Actor-y AF.

The last speech at the end of the season was the best acting I have seen from Nathan and I watch all his content. It was riveting to see him come alive.

@Ryusevi

I love how Nathan just gives these sarcastic non-answers and then Benny jumps in as personable as a person can be and gives these really sweet elaborate answers.

@lawbinson

Can't wait for their explanations of the Finale.

@commaJim

Nathan shouting out Brigsby Bear makes me so happy. That movie is great and I love that Nathan appreciates Kyle's work.

@trashysnacks

These are such fantastic panels. Benny is endlessly fascinating the way he talks about the characters and the show. I trust him implicitly with any story. I'm really going to miss Dougie for some reason once this show wraps up!! lol

@user-ub8vx8zd1d

“open heimer” “goodfellas” lol

@NateGH36O

It feels like we've got chaotic neutral (Emma), chaotic evil (Nathan) and chaotic good (Benny) up there.

@emmellas

i see a lot of comments alleging emma is "like whitney" and that just ... is the opposite of the truth. first of all, she has diagnosed anxiety disorder and panic disorder, hence the discomfort and what could be interpreted as hostility or tension you see that may look like whitney and her ever conflicting array of emotions but emma's isn't due to any kind of ill intent lying underneath a fake smile or whatever. it's rather a "fake it till you make it" as in "pretend things are fine even though i'm terrified." she's talked about being terrified of public speaking. the tension isn't hostility but rather, nerves. she's said and i quote that she's "a bundle of nerves" and "constantly overthinking" everything she says and doesn't say.

@sycazes

Nathan is so gracious in all these interviews in making sure everyone has a chance to speak. He spotlights every person's contribution in such a meaningful away. He really seems like a genuinely kind person

@yourebreakingmyballs4787

That first question was so unnecessarily long lmao

@richardnipples7574

i feel like a bigger issue than whether the characters are good or evil, is that they don't listen to eachother

@cradio52

Emma Stone is one of the most gifted and talented actors of her generation - I saw it all the way back in “Easy A,” and I’m so glad she’s seemingly really found her creative groove and is getting her due now.
