February Will Be a Good Month If You Loved 'The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters"

It's been almost twenty years since Seth Gordon made The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters, a documentary about the battle over the world-record high score in the classic arcade game Donkey Kong. Now, he's catching up with some of the key players in a new documentary. In a recent interview with Collider's Steve Weintraub to discuss Gordon's newly released Netflix film Back in Action, the pair discussed Arcades and Love Songs: The Ballad of Walter Day. The documentary focuses on the titular Walter Day, who founded Twin Galaxies, an organization that tracks video game high scores, but left it in 2010 to pursue his love of music.
