With Apple TV’s Ted Lasso and The Dink shining a spotlight on sports comedies this week, Golden Arm is another offbeat gem about competitive women’s arm wrestling, and it’s free streaming now in the US.

A few interesting facts about Golden Arm:

• Think: Over the Top meets GLOW.
• 100% on Rotten Tomatoes: One of the rare sports comedies with a perfect critics’ score.
• Female-led: Directed, written, produced, and headlined by women.
• Hidden gem: The film was set to premiere at SXSW 2020, but the festival was canceled because of COVID. Its release was overshadowed by the pandemic, and it never found the audience many felt it deserved.

• Packed with comedy talent: Mary Holland, Eugene Cordero (Loki), Ron Funches (Inside Out 2, The Traitors 2026).
