Good Time | comment |
Good Time is a 2017 crime thriller drama film directed by Josh and Benny Safdie, written by Josh Safdie and Ronald Bronstein (a long-time collaborator of the brothers'), and starring Robert Pattinson and Benny Safdie. Supporting actors include Jennifer Jason Leigh, Barkhad Abdi, and Buddy Duress.Constantine "Connie" Nikas (Pattinson) is a bank robber from Queens, New York whose life gets turned upside down when his mentally handicapped brother Nick (Safdie) winds up in Riker’s Island after a hastily executed bank robbery goes horribly wrong. Connie must now spend the night trying to get Nick out in one way or another, meeting an assortment of characters while also trying to avoid the law enforcement looking for him.An integral aspect of Good Time's style and atmosphere is derived from its electronic score by Oneohtrix Point Never, which took influence from diverse sources including Tangerine Dream and progressive rock.The film premiered at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival, where it was selected to compete for the Palme d'Or, before getting a limited-to-wide theatrical release from A24 in August of that year. | |

Latex Perfection | |
Good Time / int_47325888 | comment |
Latex Perfection: Averted - Connie and Nick attempt this for their bank robbery, disguising themselves as bald African-American males. Rather than invoking the Cast as a Mask trope, the characters use actual full-head silicone rubber masks (made by SPFX Masks, to be exact, their "Player" mask), further obscured with wool hats, hoods and sunglassses. The effect is pretty decent, if you don't look too closely at them.... | |

Connie pretty much acts like a unbearable jerk to the people around him and uses them for his own gain. His unabashed love for Nick comes close to pushing him into Jerk with a Heart of Gold territory, but he still manipulates and uses his disadvantaged brother. | |

Police Are Useless | |
Good Time / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: Zig-zagged. The NYPD is portrayed as a brutal and ham-handed institution, carelessly tossing the mentally disabled Nick into general population where he is beaten into a coma, and then unquestioningly arresting at least two innocent black people for crimes that Connie actually committed. The latter deception only fools them for a few hours at best, however, and they are ultimately able to track down, corner and arrest Connie with little difficulty. | |

Good Time / int_729c69f3 | comment |
Politically Incorrect Villain: A downplayed and maybe even unconscious example, but Connie's schemes repeatedly rely on him scapegoating black people for his own crimes and trusting the police to be racist enough to buy it. The only reason he and Ray escape the amusement park, for instance, is because he was able to fool the responding officers into thinking that Crystal and Dash, both of whom are black, were the intruders. | |

Good Time / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: Dash and and Crystal are both arrested, and the audience is not told what happens to them afterwards. It can be assumed that the police would eventually figure out that Dash was working security and had been framed by Connie. Crystal's fate, however, is more uncertain. The fact the police show up to arrest Connie and Ray at Dash’s apartment suggest they figured out the ruse, possibly due to Crystal’s interrogation, cross references with the hospital bus driver. What happened to the getaway driver? What happened to Dash's dog? | |

Shout-Out: Pepe the Frog appears in a panel of a comic book Ray and Khalil soak in LSD to create acid tabs. The opening scene is highly reminiscent of the opening scene of Blade Runner. When Connie is finally arrested, the long-take close-up of his Villainous B So D in the backseat of the police car will look very familiar to anyone who remembers Bob Hoskins realizing how deeply fucked he is at the end of The Long Good Friday. | |

Fake-Out Make-Out: While Connie and Ray (though Connie doesn't know it yet) are hiding out in the house of a woman he shared a bus with, he watches TV with the woman's granddaughter, a 16-year-old girl named Crystal. When Connie's mugshot appears on the news, he immediately kisses Crystal to distract her. The fact that Crystal's a minor makes the moment uncomfortable enough to watch, but we then see him carry her into a bedroom where he kisses her further, which is entirely optional on his behalf. | |

Refuge in Audacity | |
Good Time / int_d45c0b86 | comment |
Refuge in Audacity: Connie's willing to sink pretty low to get out of trouble, but seducing a teenager to distract her from his mugshot being shown on the news is extreme even for him. | |

Hypocrite | |
Good Time / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: Connie. He at one point accuses Ray of being an idiot and a parasite who contributes nothing to society. This is coming from a guy who has done nothing but lie and steal the whole film, pulled his mentally disabled brother from specialist therapy that would probably help him and got him arrested, and keeps coming up with poorly thought out plans that make the situation worse. Ray really has a point about he and Connie being similar. | |

Celebrity Cameo: Is that muMs da Schemer driving a hospital bus? Necro's role also qualifies as such, having played a bigger role in Heaven Knows What, the Safdie brothers' previous film. | |

Thousand-Yard Stare | |
Good Time / int_e11e88b6 | comment |
Thousand-Yard Stare: Connie ends up being caught and arrested by police. As he is escorted towards a police car, watches Ray fall to his death, and is then driven away, he has a distant, unreadable look in his eyes, as if in shock or just now realizing the cost of his actions and how thoroughly he screwed up. | |

Good Time / int_e35ab565 | comment |
Indy Ploy: Deconstructed. Connie's plans are usually made up on the fly and are always just clever enough to get him out of immediate trouble, but fraught with long-term problems that add to his wrap sheet. Unsurprisingly, the film ends with Connie being caught and arrested while fleeing from his latest botched crime. | |

Hate Sink | |
Good Time / int_e5fd8bc2 | comment |
Ray is generally unpleasant to anyone he encounters, has no real loyalty save to Caliph, and only looks out for himself. He takes the plunge into full Hate Sink when he forces Dash to drink a massive dose of LSD in order to keep him quiet. | |

Jerkass | |
Good Time / int_eb8ec7c8 | comment |
Jerkass: Connie pretty much acts like a unbearable jerk to the people around him and uses them for his own gain. His unabashed love for Nick comes close to pushing him into Jerk with a Heart of Gold territory, but he still manipulates and uses his disadvantaged brother. Ray is generally unpleasant to anyone he encounters, has no real loyalty save to Caliph, and only looks out for himself. He takes the plunge into full Hate Sink when he forces Dash to drink a massive dose of LSD in order to keep him quiet. | |

Pet the Dog | |
Good Time / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: Connie has his moments with his brother and to an extent with Crystal; while his fondness towards the former seems genuine if misguided, it's hard to tell in the latter case what's genuine and what's an effort to endear himself to her for manipulative purposes. He also literally pets several dogs throughout the movie as well. | |
