Does anyone know when or where I can watch this film ? Its been a long time and I'm surprised it hasn't been released on torrent sites, nor available to even purchase as a legit download.

I am weary of creating an account to watch online, so I ask you all ? What is the best way to get a copy, stream a copy or buy a copy of this film ?

thanks
ma

“Pantani - The Accidental death of a cyclist“ is available on Netflix.

Maybe “The Program“ is gonna be on Netflix too.

Watched this last night. It was good. There were some incidents occurred differently from what I recall reading. Just two things: Bruyneel was pretty calm in the conversation with Floyd about the 'missing' bikes.

As I read it, Floyd asked about the bikes (after the one he was riding cracked or broke), then called Trek who told him that they supplied new bikes for every rider. He confronted Bruyneel who was livid that Floyd called Trek.

The other thing was that it had Frankie call Walsh to tell him to call his wife who informed Walsh about the hospital room incident. In real life (according to his book) Walsh had heard about the hospital room and was pressing Betsy for confirmation about it.

Well, in the scheme of things, these might seem like small incidents. Perhaps a miniseries is really needed to express the way things developed, leading to the outcome we know now.

I watched "The Program" the other day on Amazon, but being I'm a "Prime" member already it didn't cost me anything extra. (The hell I will pay for yet another Lance drama!)

If you've seen or read anything about the Lance era... personally, I don't think this flick will add anything new to it.

lol lol!! :)

Like you say, there isn't anything new for the public who's been up-to-date about it already, to know about. It was an interesting dramatization but would need a miniseries to develop it well.

The Armstrong Lie and Stop At Nothing are excellent.
