Mary Bronstein is really cool, I liked her in this interview. Enough to purchase her movie.

Haven't seen the film yet and I'm really looking forward to it. It's great to know there's still room for art in major filmmaking.

Mary did a killer Rose Byrne with her "what, what, what, what" impression

Her snd her husand are extremely an talanted duo. Ive been meaning to watch the on movie he wrote and directed Smileland. Maybe itll be a good stress inducing double feature.

Wait…V important question, when, if ever, did gas stations have fax machines?! Like even back in the 90s, especially the 90s, gas stations were the suburban go to for sending a fax 🤯 ?! Figured they were considered rather fancy proprietary office products where you needed a special jack for it, why on earth would a gas station have a fax machine…?

The press for this movie seems like it's been everywhere but I can't find any theaters showing it, even though it was supposed to get a wide release 2 days ago. What's going on Conan?!
@MrCrammer

She kind of looks like Sarah Silverman.

Hearing Mary's backstory on being a young Conan fan warms my heart. It really resonated with me😊🧡

Mary is cool. This is the first time I'm actually seeing her in an interview. Love her entire vibe. More of that gentlewoman, please.
Can't wait for the release of that flick here in Europe. And I have no doubt that Conan aced his part 💪💪💪🧡

Was at BU film same time as the Safdies. Got to know of Mary first when Prof Ray Carney put her movie Yeast in a program of recent American Independent film. Mary and Safdies are connected by husband Ronnie, projectionist at Film Linc. Yeast is great.

I can't (or don't want to) imagine Snuffy splayed hanging from a ceiling. That had to have been downright traumatizing.

Is the sequel going to be called "If I Had Arms I Would Punch You"?
@cb7pwn
May 9, 2026 at 6:39 am
why so actors make it seem like its hard to act? like your laying concrete or roofing in winter or something? youre playing make believe reciting a script thats been given to you … its not that serious…

Absolutely thrilled to see the buzz around this film. Hoping it gets a release in Poland soon. Mary Bronstein is a new discovery for me, but any director who loves John Waters and gets the Safdie co-sign is automatically on my must-watch list.
It's great to see another entry in the vital subgenre of "women going crazy" films made by women, standing alongside giants like Wanda, Jeanne Dielman, and Sweetie. That's a hell of a legacy to join.
I know her husband's work well. Frownland is a masterpiece of what I call "Weaponized Awkwardness". If this new film has even an ounce of that same raw, antagonistic energy, it's going to be a classic.

What a relief! At first, I thought she was that annoying podcaster I always see advertised while watching PlutoTV stuff. 🙄

Move on, people, it’s a comedy podcast, not the UN.

I like Mary Bronstein. First time I've heard of or seen her. She's got such amazing humility and clarity of thought. I wish I could be more like that
