Review of The Wrestler (1971) by Ross P — 08 Oct 2011
Mickey Rourke is amazing, and this film strikes me on an even more personal level since it seems like it could be about the dude who works at the grocery store down the street. Working class NJ is beautiful in its dank decay.
The characters are raw and realistic. "The only place I get hurt is out there. The world don't give a shit about me." I can't like this film enough.
