"I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story" documentary in development

[MelissaY1]

I haven't heard specifically about Netflix, however, I have noticed that a lot of documentaries in general that have had releases lately have been coming out on Netflix the same day as they are available On Demand, etc. I'm hoping so. Netflix did have Being Elmo on there for awhile...

Who cares? I wanted to see this in theaters.

People who don't have it showing near them I'm sure care lol it's an amazing film regardless. I saw it in the theater and still want to see it again in my own home and get a copy to have

Saw it today at the MoMI. It was really good. Some stories you've heard before, others you probably haven't. Plus, I got Caroll's autograph and a photo of him, me and Oscar.

@Oscarfan that's awesome! It must have been super unreal to be meeting and taking a picture with your favorite SS character!

I was there too. Really beautiful film. I must admit, Spinney does not seem as "with it," which is totally understandable given his age, but it was a little sad to see.

Now that the film is officially available for the first time, we're moving the discussion here.
