In this feature-length documentary, director Paul Jay was given unprecedented access to the world of Bret Hart and pro wrestling as his camera followed Bret “the Hitman” Hart for one year. Going behind the tightly guarded walls of wrestling’s spectacle and theatre, the film explores the meaning of today’s wrestling morality plays. As fantasy crosses into real life, the true story of Bret Hart’s struggle with Vince McMahon, the legendary owner of the WWE, is revealed. Hitman Hart: Wrestling with Shadows climaxes with the tale of the biggest double-cross in pro wrestling.

that audiotape is Amazing!!
12 kids man, that is wild lol
I met an unknown wrestler from the USA that said Hart was up himself and arrogant. But somehow, I didn't believe a word of it.
I was a wrestling fan in the days of The Hitman, and watching clips of wrestling now, the description stands true. The Best There Was; The Best There Is; And The Best There Ever Will Be.
I'm not a fan of wrestling now, and I have met quite a few ex-WWE wrestlers, but the one I would like to meet is Bret Hart. The Excellence Of Execution.
Vince was such a conniving liar the did Bret dirty while Shawn constantly disrespected him and he faced no consequences on top of that he lied to Bret about being in on it and denied it for so long the way they treated Bret near the end was disgusting
When Brett turned heel, his promos instantly improved. I think there’s some conviction behind those promos.
Crazy seeing Bret wearing a shirt with Nathan Bedford Forrest on it at the 6:40 mark. I don't have a problem with it, just wasn't expecting to see that.
Stu was a nut case.
I truly hope that woman at 52:50 is doing awesome today!
1:10:39 why did they hire an Elvis impersonator
1:14:11 Jason Sensation a true Canadian hero
1:25:19 that fatso looked like she ate the whole Hart family
From.the book Brett loved blondes 😉
100% fake
Watching Vince hobble out of the dressing room after Bret knocked him out makes smile and happy every time
Love the documentary. BUT I don't care about Bret having creative control and all that. Bret KNOWS better than to think he could just forfeit the belt the next day and walk out.
WCW would use that and run with it. Vince couldn't have that. He couldn't have Eric bragging how the WWF (at the time) champion forfeit the belt and leave to WCW.
Eric would use that over and over how nobody in WWF could beat him for the title. How he Bret was bored because there were no challenge left in WWF so instead he forfeitted the belt on RAW. That would make the title look like a complete joke. We'd never hear the end of it back in the day. Bret knows this, he is smart he knows.
Then again it was wrong for Vince to simply play along. He should have just point blank told Bret you're losing the title no matter what you think about it, and that's that.
But he didn't. So they were both wrong.
That guy screaming in pain was real
This his a great upload of some of the best times in wrestling for me . The hart familey have add so many good wrestlers in there familey was looky as a kid to see them. bulldog was my favorite i wonder why 🇬🇧 . ,,,R.I.P owen hart💓,, 🙏
Hitman: Means murderer for hire.
Brett: it means stick up for urself
lol
In the beginning, when Bret told Anvil how to do the promo, is this a young Vince Russo standing behind/between them??
I think I commented on this documentary once…..but Bret, since I was a kid from the 80s has always been my favourite wrestler. The Hart ♥️🖤 foundation was always my favourite team, Them and demolition 😆 I'm 47 an I'm still cheering for Bret no matter what he's doing in his life 👍🏻💯 Im so glad I got to see wrestle mania lV when he went against to Bad news brown lol…and broke his trophy.
