Review of Sick: The Life and Death of Bob Flanagan, Supermasochist (1997) by Shawn P — 05 Jun 2007
Great documentary about a man who takes power over his terminal illness by becoming a masochist. Not for the weak of stomach, but a completely honest and totally unique film experience. Really a must see if you can handle it.
Be warned... this film pulls no punches and is very very graphic in showing Bob's masochism... but the overall message of the film is suprisingly uplifting and empowering. A must see for doc fans.
