About This Movie

Chasing Rewind is this warm, nostalgic dive into the world of video rental stores. You know, those places that were like treasure chests for movie lovers? Louise Weard really captures the essence of those little nooks of cinema history. The interviews with former renters and store owners pull you in, as they share their fondest memories and the unique culture surrounding these shops. The pacing is thoughtful, taking its time to soak in the atmosphere—kind of like browsing through the aisles. It’s not just about the films themselves, but the connections made over picking out the perfect tape.
