Bigger, Stronger, Faster! Great film

I saw "Bigger, Stronger, Faster" today. It was part of a film festival in dublin, Ireland. I thought it was very well especially considering the creator is a gym worker in golds and not a media person. Recommended viewing.

It's about steroids and their perception in america in sport and in general. It's focus is on wrestling, athletics, powerlifting and not just BB. The director tries to give some explanations for the win at all cost phsyche(spelling?) of the american male. Lots of interesting interviews and i think the film maker was quite balanced. Lots of people at the screening enjoyed it who new little or nothing about BB or wrestling etc. Sorry for being behind the times but this was the first and maybe only screening of the movie in Ireland and perhaps Europe.

It's kinda sad knowing the Wrestler Brother commited suicide after the movie was made.

actually it was pretty informative and provided what i thought to be an unbiased look at a pretty controversial topic that is very relevant to today
