New Pics From Aranofsky’s THE WRESTLER

This film has been slowly, slowly, slowly building itself a strong footing on my “must see radar”. I’m always interested to see Mickey Rourke stop with these “character pieces” and go for the full-blown “come-back” job, headlining some worthy movie. I was a big Darren Aranofsky fan until he fucked me over with The Fountain. And Marisa Tomei is my new “I’ll watch her in ANYTHING” after seeing her sublime performance in Before The Devil Knows You’re Dead.
