Strongman is an interesting dive into the life of Stanless Steel, a guy who can bend a penny with his bare hands. The documentary really captures the weight of his physical prowess against the backdrop of middle age. It’s got this raw tone, kind of melancholic, as you see his career not quite hitting the highs he hoped for. The pacing feels reflective, like taking a deep breath and just contemplating life’s challenges. There's this fascinating contrast between his external strength and the internal struggles he faces with relationships and self-image. The practical effects are minimal, but that just emphasizes the realness of Stanless. It shows how sometimes the strongest among us deal with the heaviest burdens.
