Entertainment Reviews:
[A] rich, thoughtful, meticulously crafted tapestry about the evolution of the beloved writing machine for purists, history buffs, collectors and others fighting to preserve or re-embrace analog life.
Los Angeles Times
[T]his quirky, obsessive documentary is about so much more than broken keys and busted type wheels. It’s really about how we create art.
New York Times
