The Matchbox Man Trailer (2024)
"The story of one man’s obsession with cars…really really small cars…" 20 January 2024 Factual 22 mins
So what do you do when your cherished childhood toy becomes a collection. Then becomes an obsession? Well, like the Addams Family – voila! The house is a museum! The Matchbox Man, director Gorman Bechard visits Charlie Mack, who began buying Matchbox cars in 1963, when he was 7; from his initial 20 to 30, his collection exploded to more than 42,000 – one of the world’s largest – prompting him to turn much of his Connecticut home into a showcase of nearly every model and variation ever made. And while he gives a look at his blistering array of colors and styles, he presents a history of a humble toy car that became an international phenomenon.
