Pumping Iron
Directed by George Butler, Bob Fiore
- Tim Dum Dum Dugan22 de mayo de 2026In retrospect this is more of a promotional video for Schwarzenegger and Weider products than a documentary. Its an exposé on the sham that is the bodybuilding “ sport” . Bodybuilding is a tool to sell goods and services . Not a sport . Still , its a great film and really help Arnold and bodybuilding get mainstream appeal
