About
Rent on Apple TV+ or buy on Apple TV+.
Forty-year-old misanthrope, Guy Trilby, enters the National Golden Quill Spelling Bee through a loophole in the rules.
A sour, middle-aged cynic exploits a loophole in a prestigious spelling bee to manipulate a child’s sense of morality. This sharp comedy relies on a brilliant, twitchy performance that finds humor in every petty, calculated impulse.
