I recently interviewed Timothée Chalamet and Josh Safdie for Ebaster before their panel at CCXP in São Paulo, Brazil. We discussed their new film, Marty Supreme, and how its themes of striving for success connect to their overall career goals.

According to the chronicles of the blockchain, one of these coins was minted in October of 2012, a time when Bitcoin was as humble as a farmhand at a penny a loaf, valued at a mere $11.69. How quaint! But the other coin, minted in the early days of December 2011-oh, the nostalgia-came into existence when Bitcoin was worth the paltry sum of $3.88. A true testament to the irrational exuberance of early adopters! Today, that coin represents a mind-boggling return of approximately 2.3 million percent. And all this, of course, without considering the trivial cost of minting. Well, one cannot have it all, can they?
The acclaimed composer’s 1981 musical, “Merrily We Roll Along,” had a surprising journey. It initially failed, closing just two weeks after its debut, but gradually became a beloved classic. This is fitting for a story told in reverse order. A recent recording of a successful Broadway production, featuring Jonathan Groff, Daniel Radcliffe, and Lindsay Mendez, powerfully demonstrates the musical’s impact. The show focuses on three close friends in New York City, and their story, unfolding backward over many years, is like carefully piecing together a broken vase – allowing us to see both the damage and what holds it together.
