    I was wondering the same thing, I checked most streaming services and could not find it.

    Well none of the above sites say when it’s going to be available. It looks like they had a virtual event back in October. I can’t wait to see it

    It is a cute little movie.
    A love story really,
    two actually
    The love Roger had for the game of pinball
    and the love Roger had for Ellen
    his future and present wife.
    Really well made, the writing, acting and direction were all very good.
    With a little bit of history of pinball thrown in.
    Buy the movie online for $10 or rent it.

    Not a bad movie, but not a great one by any means either. It’s an easy going lighthearted film.
    I’d give it a solid 6.8/10
    Definitely worth watching once!

    A very good review and write up in the New Yorker online article.
    Oscar maybe for the Lead???

    I just got done watching the movie and loved it. The wife didn’t play pinball and enjoyed it as well

    Watching it now. It’s really well done.
    Did you catch rogers cameo?

    Watched the movie, it is definitely an entertaining movie, really the love story part of it more than anything. Personally I think the fact that pinball was ever banned is way more interesting than the "moment" it got unbanned, but that's just me.

    There’s like ten different topics on this film. Mods? Maybe combine to get better circulation?

    Watched it last night. A great story for those interested in pinball and even those who aren't. Well written, well shot and well acted. An impressive movie.

    Was that your' Planets that we used in the film?

    I found it to be a very fun machine too bad they didnt use more footage that was taken of it.

    I would watch this movie ...but...but... I already know how it ends!

    Watched the movie and LOVED it. It far surpassed any of my expectations, so kudos to all involved in its making. The only annoying thing was his moustache...but I guess the facts are the facts.
