Here's a link to the whole thing, for those who haven't seen it, or want to ee it again.

Nothing.

 

I don't think there is a difference between the two.

I bought the VHS copy for $3...why waste $10 on a DVD for the same shit?

I have it taped off of A&E, is there anything new on the VHS compared to what was shown on television?

Well they have an Interview with Hart and the guy who made it from about 18 months after the Documentary was filmed. I don't know if it aired with the Doc. on A&E though.

True dat - it's like 20 minutes or so of extra stuff. Jay also goes into detail on the "creative control" Bret had over the film... not what you might expect.

 

The only other real difference I noticed on the DVD was that they totally removed Pat Patterson's "kick that motherfucker" and "mother fucking no good bastard" speech during the scene where they lay out the match. Shame, since it made Pat look like a badass Goodfellas heel, rather than a big gay stooge.

As much as I love Hart, and as much as the whole Montreal incident was not Bret's fault, Wrestling With Shadows was almost unwatchable because it was so one sided. The interview with him and Paul Jay afterwards was the best stuff.

 

May I highly reccommend the Owen Hart biography, also part of A and E's Bodyslam week.

Usually a documentary about someone will be lop-sided. Besides, they had no idea what was going to happen when they started filming it, which is why the thing is one of the more popular wrestling documentaries.
