The Safdie brothers bring grungy, almost relentless chaos in Good Time. Connie Nikas is a small time criminal (played most convincingly by Robert Pattinson) desperately trying to raise bail to spring his mentally handicapped brother (also portrayed brilliantly by Benny Safdie), who is in Rikers Island after a failed robbery earlier in the day. This is some crazy isht.

I had been wanting to start doing some MovieNight-like screenings in the new place, but realized that the bar stock was pretty low. Being (almost) as resourceful as Connie Nikas, I thought, “I know. Bar restocking party!” Thanks to everyone who turned up with hooch. It was, indeed, a good time 🙂
