It's Lucha Libre, of course, Southern California's cult phenomenon which tears up the screen in Duncan MacLeod's eye-popping documentary La Lucha-The Struggle. You'll watch, mesmerized, as tattooed youths in flashy masks dramatically re-enact the battle for good and evil; outrageous pink-garbed drag queen wrestlers kiss macho men into submission; and even glamorous burlesque dancers bump and grind their way into the act. It's all here in this wild documentary. It's fun, it's gritty, it's real. It's La Lucha! Written by Michele Seipp See less
