Cachorro AKA Bear Cub

After seeing stripedtiger's entry about buying it, I decided to spend the last of an Amazon gift certificate I've had on account on Bear Cub. I happily received my unrated copy on Friday afternoon.



Cachorro AKA Bear Cub

Tonight, I put the DVD in and settled down on the couch. I was pleasantly surprised how good this movie was. I say this as most gay-themed movies generally are very low budget and it shows. This movie was very well done. No one was a saint and I think that is what made it so much more believable. The group of bears in the movies made it fun to watch and the relationship between the Pedro the Uncle and his nephew was very touching in its development. There is a few racy sex scenes in this movie, but I'm pretty sure it shocks the American viewers more than the European market.

The only negative is the subtitles, which took some time to get used to, but its hardly a complaint.

I'm looking forward to seeing the uncut version or Bear Cub. The one was saw in the theater was was the cut verison and it didn't flow well. I heard the uncut makes alot more sense.

I usually don't have a problem with subtitles, but they talk so fast in the movie that the subtitles were a little more difficult in this one.

I'm glad I bought the uncut version, I thought it flowed pretty well. I would think the choppy cutting of the cut version would be distracting.

I think you'll enjoy it. :)

I ran to the theatres to see this and I thought it was good - not great... what surprised me was that they cut out the racy gay scenes... so now I'm hoping the unrated version will be available on Netfliks.... hrmph!

I've heard Netflix has a lot of gay themed movies, so I'd guess it will.

I really want to see this movie. I didn't know there was a cut and an uncut version. I'll make sure to get the uncut.

All this cut and uncut talk is making me ... strangely aroused...

I saw this movie at the GLBT film festival in Royal Oak, MI. I had heard about it before and wanted to see it for myself. Overall I thought the movie was a nice flick and although it probably isn't award winning performances, the acting in it was pretty good. I didn't have a problem with the subtitles but then again I speak spanish so I was able to follow some of the dialogue along without the help of the words. I'll be sure to get the unrated version to see what was chopped out of the film.

I've actually been thinking about picking up Spanish. I travel overseas once a year and I think it could it come in handy.

I think except for Chinese it's the most widely spoken language on the planet. It would be handy to know it.
