Linoleum is an excellent movie, we paid to rent it off of Youtube last night. Stars Jim Gaffigan (yes, the comedian) and Rhea Seehorn (Kim from Better Call Saul).
The IMDB plot summary is:
"When the host of a failing children's science show tries to fulfill his childhood dream of becoming an astronaut by building a rocket ship in his garage, a series of bizarre events occur that cause him to question his own reality."
Gaffigan really gives a great low key performance (this is much more a drama, not a comedy), and the way it all comes together in the end makes for a really wonderful film that will stick with you. If you're planning to watch it, don't read or look up too much or it may spoil it for you.
