Thanks for the heads up! Will have to take a look.
I have a feeling though, that all the ground has been covered, and all these always portray a rose-tinted glasses view at the whole thing. Would love to see something different for once.

I was lucky enough to get to see the premiere of this in London last year (thanks TrevorD for giving his producer tickets away!) and I really enjoyed it, some great interviews.

Also it was fantastic to have an all-too-brief chat with David Pleasance

I think he just posted on Twitter that he had some tickets. I'm also in London, so it was a pretty easy trip, but there were some guys there from Holland who were in the film!

Yup I got a ticket from TrevorD too. I travelled from Belfast.
Movie was unfinished and a bit rough in places. The narrative wasn't totally cohesive yet.
Steven Croucher described it as a screener only.

This fine documentary can be downloaded from the interwebs in its final form. I mean bought for a few bucks
and downloaded from the official web site, don't get me wrong .
Here is the trailer : [ Show youtube player ]

I for one never get tired of hearing R.J. Mical stories about the good old days. Furthermore, Sam Tramiel
retelling of his father investments and accomplishments (both on a personal and on a managerial level)
should not be missed.
