This documentary was great and entertaining. I don't want to spoil anything but it was a simple documentary with lots to think about. He talks about a big issue that all men goes through. We all look for our father's nod of approval......... I love this documentary.

Oh people get over your self's and your so called animal torture views of this. I don't see you crying about all the animals killed, slaughtered that's waiting for you in the supermarket for you to chow down on. I guess its the old saying out of sight out of mind, that appeases your guilt. This is part of some cultures, you don't like it don't watch it!. The Bulls are taken to the Butcher and eaten so its not wasted. The Bulls have just as much a chance as the Matador, the matador doesn't always win. Cheers

i fell asleep so many times trying to watch.

Absolutely awe inspiring and deeply touching. It provokes a man to look back into himself and decide what living is all about... not 'living'.... but really LIVING!

As from one that has a fair understanding and appreciation for the art of bullfighting this documentary/film was superb. Had me hooked after the first 2 minutes.
Unlike the other reviewers before me who lack any descent understanding of humanity, who are simply little ninnies, likely offspring of the hippie generation, this film gives a good depiction of what bullfighting is about. The innate curiosity to see if one can take on the challenge in learning the art of bullfighting, the fears that are confronted by the matador, then growth and maturity that develops from the experience. Ironically it is odd that we Americans have not accepted bullfighting as a national sport.. It makes more sense than football, boxing, UFC, and especially hockey. I take back what I said about we Americans adopting bullfighting as a national sport. It is likely that the art of bullfighting would the be skewed and gravely misinterpreted for the purpose of gaining greater economic profits.My respects to those who took part in the bullfighting.
Again, great movie and highly recommend it to anyone with an open mind.

Undoubtedly bullfighting is a dangerous and challenging uh... well, I wouldn't call it a 'sport' as much as it is just annoying, teasing and finally gruesomely killing a bull. I noticed that the final death scene of the bull in the final fight was cut short. We only saw the big, dramatic jab by the film maker with a sword. I imagine the bull had to be stuck more than this. I imagine that the dying bull pulled his blood spewing carcass around the ring for at least a few minutes after being savagely cut. I imagine that the dying was not swift, it was not clean, and it was deeply disturbing. I imagine this is why it was cut from the final product. Listen, I know that bullfighting is traditional in Spain and Mexico as well as other Latin American countries. Traditionally, many things were done... like human slavery and staging human fights to the death. These practices eventually fell from favor. Now they are never done, at least not openly, and not openly endorsed by any government. The fact that bullfighting remains just goes to show that just because some things were done traditionally doesn't mean that they should continue forever.
