I know this story may surprise you, but one of our inspirations for the making of THE SMASHING MACHINE, was the 1946 classic IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE (one of my top 5 all time films) Benny Safdie and I had some pretty wild and eye opening conversations about how by the end of the film - nothing has changed - except his perspective on life. Goes to show how meaningful our lives can be when our perspective changes. Loved my chat with @kateyrichtalking 🫱🏾‍🫲🏼Listen to full interview in my bio 🎧🎙️☝🏾 #PrestigeJunkie 🎭 #TheSmashingMachine

This was awesome and these kids deserve it 🎁🙏🏾🤎Our @PapaTui_ and @Walmart surprised a local @YMCA in Nashville to take care of their holiday wishlists ✔️🛒I lived in Nashville during some hard times as a teenager, so giving back to these kids feels good and in a way - full circle ⭕️ Merry Christmas to all of your families from @PapaTui_ and @Walmart 🎄🎅🏾

Thank you to the amazing students at @chapmanu @dodgecollege & @scott_feinberg for this amazing conversation. Appreciate U letting me open up a little and sharing some lessonsFor pretty much all my life, I held onto my traumatic & painful stuff and never talked about it. But it’s been wildly freeing and cathartic knowing I can explore it these days, in my work. Finally have a place to put it. I’ve tried one on one therapy over the years with some very credible psychology folks, but I just never found my groove. Maybe I’ll try it again down the road. But for now, my work is my #1 therapist. Just feels right 🥃. And what I’d give to have a talk with my 15 year old self, give him a hug, and tell him everything is gonna shake out ok ~ and also despite how hard you try, fanny packs will never be cool 😂🥃

I such a cool conversation with Roger Durling @sbfilmgeek and a packed house with the Santa Barbara International Film Festival Cinema Society to discuss, THE SMASHING MACHINE.I’m beyond grateful for every deep conversation, and emotional reaction from people that this film has created.

The Smashing Machine transformation. An image from our early camera test. My absolute honor working with legendary Make Up Designer Kazu Hiro @kazustudios for this transformative journey to become Mark Kerr. Might be hard to tell, but there’s 23 prosthetics I’m wearing that required 3-4 hours of application every morning before stepping on set to film. You realize that the beautiful & emotional effect of Kazu’s prosthetics are in the subtleties and nuance. The things you can barely see on me but helped fuel my performance. Also keep in mind the fight scenes in the ring, were hard core and I’d get punched in the face - a lot - 🥴🥊😅 - between getting rocked and all the sweat - keeping these prosthetics “camera ready” was a huge challenge to contend with. Massive kudos to the make up and hair team, you are all first class masters 👏🏾👏🏾#thesmashingmachine written & directed by benny safdie
