But, their efforts are complicated when an eccentrically flawed reality TV producer, Dougie, sees opportunity in their story.

THE CURSE stars Oscar® winner Emma Stone, Nathan Fielder and Benny Safdie.

@@MrPerciG I didn't take it as demeaning to either of them. Of course, people have diverse tastes. But they're both just so rooted in different pockets of the film/TV world. And I think with Nathan-to use his words-only recently 'stumbling into' a more cinematic space, it's probably just as bewildering to him.

The thing about the extras looking into the camera kind of creeped me out in a cool way. Specifically the scene where the camera is inside a house looking out the window where the woman that lives there is watching tv on a couch in the dark in the corner. One of the times the camera cuts back to that angle the woman is staring directly into the camera until it cuts away and that caught me so off guard. Love that scene.

I grew up in Española and had no idea about the show being based there until weeks after it came out (moved out for college and been gone since). I am grateful to hear how respectful Nathan and Ben are to the town and people. The town has a lot of challenges and it is an easy target for mockery, especially by the Santa Fe types they are critical of here. But it is also beautiful in many ways, and the people are genuine.

@andrethegiant6969 3 ай бұрын

Comedy is a subversion of expectation. The Curse has been a subversion of emotion which I don't think I have experienced before. I don't even know how to put to paper what it made me feel. But it was like this brewing feeling of anxiety when it seems fine, comedy when it doesn't. It seriously will either be a massive hit, or in 10 years people are going to finally understand why it was so important.
