Bob Ross: Alegria, Traição e Ganância

Sometimes, there are documentaries that just get about everything right. The research on this one is so well done and the situations that are talked about in the documentary are happening as we watch it, so much that you can't deny there is something fishy going on. I loved watching the 'Joy of Painting with Bob Ross'-shows as much as anyone else, but I never fully understood the current operations by 'Bob Ross Inc', and all the irrelevant or subpar 'crap' they are selling nowadays with the Bob Ross-name slapped on it. Watch this documentary and find out how one couple called the Kowalski's succeeded in actually robbing a man's name while on his deathbed. It's sad, really. They did Steve dirty.

This is one of the most emotional documentaries I've seen in a long while, telling a side of Bob's story that I never knew. Not only is the drama of Bov's life told beautifully but it is accompanied by gorgeous shots of landscapes in reference to the subject of many of his paintings. This alongside truly magnificent dramatical painting used to illustrate parts of the story that were not visually documented creates a truly engaging experience of truth. My eyes have seen a new vision of Bob Ross Inc. That will surely shape how I spend my money in the future, but also a new appreciation of Ross and his work.

A great documentary that brings to light the evil that stood behind the camera in that Bob Ross studio.

I really feel for Bob and his son Steve, the greed of man really meets no end; there are slimey little money grabbers everywhere you look, even in the proverbial sanctuary where Bob created many of his beautiful works of art.

Bob Ross Inc needs to be boycotted with immediate effect, this has been going on for far too long, it's just a shame the world didn't know sooner.

I have followed his extensive work for some time now (since 2014), whilst I never got to enjoy the experience of a new episode, I know he brought inspiration and joy to generations he wouldn't have ever expected to know his work.

I found this documentary hard to watch at points, whilst he had his flaws like most people, even when he was beaten by life, he tried to bring joy to others. It was shameful what was done before and after his death by those around him.

If you like or care about Bob Ross at all then this is definitely worth a watch. It is pretty slow in places, but it is all part of the story.

It's hard to think that anyone would want to take advantage of a man as kind as Bob Ross. I hope the people who did him wrong are shamed into doing the right thing. I say shame because we know they won't do the right thing on their own accord. If I were a part of the Kowalski family or Bob Ross, inc I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. Shameful! Greedy! Monsters!
