Awesome Tuna Expert

I really enjoyed this documentary. It's such a great story illustrating passion dedication and striving for excellence.

I was particularily struck by the tuna man though, he looked like a gunslinger movie star to me the way he was all "there can be only one" tuna that is the best.

I dunno, I just really liked him and was wondering if anyone else felt the same way.

Yes, a great character. I think they mentioned that there had been a TV show about him. Very interesting doc!

Yes, sir, I'm going to do nothing like she's never been done before!

I would so watch a doc on the tuna man. Not only was he interesting, he was good looking too.

Yeah, that guy was a standout for me as well. He was clearly awesome.

Mostly I felt very hungry when watching, but also the Rice Seller seemed very dedicated

Haha tuna gunslinger. The OP had me laughing so hard. "There can be only one!" So great! Id have to say though, the rice seller was clearly three sheets.

I agree with you about the theme of the documentary, and also that tuna guy appealed to me so much too! He was awesome in his demeanor and his look. Your description of him as a gunslinger movie star is right on!
