In an early scene from Josh Safdie’s solo directorial debut, Marty Supreme, the titular character encounters a problem. Although the store where he works has the shoe size his customer is looking for, Marty isn’t satisfied and strives to sell a smaller size, or possibly a more expensive shoe. Unmoved by his customer’s discomfort, he happily lies to satisfy his sense of self-importance. This is the first of many lies which Marty utilises as stepping stones to getting what he wants. The ease with which he bends the truth and manipulates people without hesitation is a fascinating aspect of this relentlessly driven and reckless character.
