Away from the ring and on the road.
8 January 2021
350 Days has a group of old ex wrestlers talking about their time in the wrestling business. However the documentary isn't about their matches and time in the ring, its about their life on the road, getting from town to town to wrestle and the struggles they faced. To reconfirm, if your big wrestling fan type who visit's wrestling websites and reads wrestlers biographies, there's probably not a lot of new information in this documentary. But the wrestlers do talk openly about drug use, sexual affairs, fans and family life. There is a good assortment of wrestlers in this documentary, including former champs like Superstar Billy Graham and Bret Hart who were at the top level of the pro wrestling business at some point. Its interesting to see the wrestlers away from the lights and ring, and casually talking about their memories. Some wrestlers come off as quite articulate and intelligent, while others cant resist in hamming it up. Some wrestlers like to tell stories and add parts in to make it sound more exciting of funny, whether all the tales that are told here are all authentic or not who knows? I do get the feeling that most stories told here were true. This documentary seems to draw a lot of inspiration from Darren Aronofsky's movie The Wrestler (2008).
