I think Disney figured out how to get their 200 million budget so they can greenlight Adam Driver and Steven Soderbergh's Star Wars X: The Hunt For Ben Solo

I've watched this movie several times now because you notice funny and understated details every time. In a world where screen is more frequently simplified so people can scroll on their phones while they watch, I appreciate a filmmaker who doesn't dumb it down.

Great doc, Mr. Scorsese. Love seeing Marty give props to his ex wife Barbara Defina as an incredible producer. They produced our film Lymelife so I know first hand how important they were to each other, still collaborating long after getting divorced. Inspiring in so many ways.

Been loving talking about the real life inspiration for my film BitterSweet on podcasts lately. Did you know the fucking Frenchman was based on my real neighbor? How did his dastardly deeds foil my hero's plans? Find out by watching BitterSweet now streaming on Tubi. Link in reply👇

A funny part of writing fictional characters whom you care about is when you start worrying about how they can pay the bills. Thier fictional bills. In the fictional world you are making for them. Who tf is worried about my non-fictional bills?

Missing Robert Redford. Here's Bob, as we called him on the mountain, talking to Charlie Rose about why he started the Sundance Labs, Festival; and Channel. He brought video clips of us on the mountain workshopping Lymelife with Kieran Culkin and Michael Rooker for the Sundance documentry.

Flashback Friday: Me & childhood friend Kevin Jordan St3 from 90s Sinbad comedy Houseguest. We made fake MTV News badges, he played the host with a dead mic, I played the
cameraman with a broken camera. In 1999 we crashed all the big parties in LA, Vegas, NY, and pictured here, Rome.

I am so excited to see Daniel Day-Lewis return to the big screen acting under the direction of his son Paul Thomas Day-Lewis in
One Anemone After Another.

Missing Robert Redford. His guidance at Sundance was my film school, my spirit walk, my prayer circle. He and his chosen group of mentors and advisors completely opened up our creative process and taught us how and when to dig deeper into your story until your story grabs your hand and tells you.

At my sister's streaming @stevenmartini.bsky.social new movie Bittersweet on both TVs and my laptop on repeat to boost the opening weekend stats on Tubi. One way to support Indie filmmakers after watching the movie (which was fantastic by the way).

I don't give movies a rating on a scale because I think it's reductive. I would rather just say whether or not *I* liked it, and in the case of BitterSweet, I did like it. It freaked me out, but that was part of the charm and authenticity.

Good job, Steve. Great film.
