Why did the brothers Safdie separate after uninterrupted gemstones?

Safdie Brothers, Josh and Benny, collaborated in five films together, starting with their intermittent movie, “Dady Longlegs” in 2009. The couple made a sports documentary entitled “Lenny Cooke” in 2013 and Psycho-Drama “Heaven knows what” in 2014, but they achieved an amount Noticeable of repetition in 2017 with the “Time Time” version. The world has finally noticed their tense style made from filmmaking, to the extent that they were nominated for Palme d’or at the Cannes Festival. They followed the “Time Time” in 2019 with “unfamiliar gemstones”, their biggest successes so far. “Gems Uncut Gems” starred in ADAM SANDLER, winning $ 50 million at the box office and won the Best Director of the Spirit Indender Awards. Critics loved her.

However, Safdies has not made a movie together since then. Instead he was elected to work on it A single project called “destroying machine”, “ Biography of MMA Mark Care, starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blant. Benny wrote, directed and produced “a destroying machine”, and it appears to be an early competitor to the Academy Awards. This is scheduled to be in theaters on October 3. Josh, at the same time, directed, produced and participated in writing his sports drama It is called “Marti Superim,” Timothy Chalamite and Joenith Paltrow as fictional characters in the world of table tennis at the Olympic level. This is scheduled to be in theaters on December 25.

Why did Safdies choose to go to its separate ways and make movies alone? It seems that it was just the next logical step for them. Benny explained in a recent number of Empire Magazine He and Josh have already started filmmaking tracks separately from each other, and each made films on their own before joining many films together. After “uninterrupted gemstones”, each of them revealed that they had separate interests in filmmaking and they had no group about following these projects individually. There is no bad blood among the brothers. They just wanted to do different things.

It should be noted that Josh Safdi made several shorts without Benny early in his career, as he was sometimes cooperating with his brother. His first film was a 16 mm low budget drama, entitled “The Places of theft”, which he directed, produced, participated in writing, and participated in a championship with Ellion Hindrix. Benny and Josh worked together as editors in this movie. They also edited “Daddy Longlegs” together, but Bunny took over as a single editor for the rest of the extension cooperation. Meanwhile, Benny completed his first single short, “John’s Knowledge is alone”, in 2008. They will continue making 10 additional short films as one team, but each of them knows how to make films alone.

When “uninterrupted gemstones” It has ended, it seemed to be an appropriate time to work on new individual projects. Again, this was not a comment on the work they did together until that time, but just a return to their first days, and sometimes they make movies on their own. As Benny said:

(W) They were always working for something, and when we got to this place, it was almost, “Oh, well, what now? “(…) Then it was like, ‘I am interested in thisAnd, ‘I am interested in, ” Then you want to know that. (…) I felt like a continuation of a process. “

However, because both brothers immediately did sports dramas as “uncommon” films, and because they are released in just months of each other, many audience members may see as a competition. Which one will earn more money? Which one will be nominated for more Academy Awards? Which is better? Nevertheless, the masses seem to be more preoccupied with such ideas than the masses themselves. They just wanted to make the films they want to make.
