"Business stories involving a meteoric rise followed by a spectacular collapse naturally lend themselves to movies, whether it’s a feature like BlackBerry or a documentary like Fyre Fraud. It’s kind of ironic, though, that a company like MoviePass, whose business proposition was “helping people see more movies,” ended up inspiring one itself.

Filmmaker Muta’Ali had not been aware of MoviePass during the meteoric-rise phase, when its literally-too-good-to-be-true offer of unlimited moviegoing for $9.99 per month made it the fastest growing subscription service since Spotify. . The ever-elusive terms of service had made MoviePass increasingly difficult to use, and the state of New York had announced the company was under investigation for fraud. It was a juicy story, just not one Muta’Ali particularly wanted to tell in a documentary. That all changed a few years later, though, when he read an article about the two Black founders who’d been written out of the story."
