I downloaded The Wrestler, a Golden Globe Award-winning film directed by Darren Aronofsky.

Highly recommended.

Click PLAY or watch the trailer on YouTube.

Mickey Rourke is a strong candidate for Best Actor at the Oscars. He is deserving, perfect in this memorable role. (Thank God the original actor chosen — Nicolas Cage — stepped away from the project for Rourke.)

Marisa Tomei I’ve never liked. But she’s excellent in this film.

Both actors are completely believable in a study of the psychology of getting old. And coming to terms with the end of your career.

We’re all getting older.
