Darren Aronofsky's new film, The Wrestler
Anyone looking forward to seeing this? I just got tickets to its premiere screening at the Toronto International Film Festival. It's already getting good buzz, especially for Mickey Rourke's performance. I heard that Marisa Tomei has some steamy scenes (she plays a stripper). Hopefully this film will signal Aronofsky's comeback after the critical and box-office failure of The Fountain, which I actually liked a lot.
BTW, after this, Aronofsky is making yet another sports film, entitled The Fighter, about Irish boxer Mickey Ward, starring Brad Pitt and Mark Wahlberg (release date some time in 2009)
