"I Am the Tigress" new FBB documentary review

Nov 21, 2023 - edited Nov 21, 2023 - permalink

From the Guardian, (which has its agendas and hypocrisies which I wont go into here) but here is a short review of a new FBB documentary, though it's not on general release.

"I don't wanna go in there, but I'm doing anyway". :/

Looks like a pretty interesting documentary, and the review sounded pretty fair. I like the emphasis on how the documentary isn't mean to promote either a feel-good story or a grim, morbid tale. Rather, it covers the subject with objectivity and a kind of "how it is" perspective on multiple aspects like motivating clients and followers, frustration at competitions and sessions.

Kind of interesting how the review starts with Tischa talking about sessions. Obviously, bodybuilders wouldn't do it if they weren't being paid for it, but I wonder how many of them find some enjoyment out of doing them, versus how many of them begrudgingly do them.

There was already a thread started on this over a year ago. I'll keep this thread open only because the other one hasn't been updated in a long time.

I know some like it. but they usually want to dominate in their own way that may not always be what the client wants. and a lot of the really dominant ones are often not necessarily the strongest.

The movie apparently will stream at www.truestory.film. The website says the subscription fee is $6.99 per month, but there's a code for 50% off the first month. Sounds like a deal to see the flick.
