The Wrestler

Despite his failing health and rapidly diminishing fame, Randy “The Ram” Robinson (Mickey Rourke) continues to eke out a career as a professional wrestler… partially due to financial hardship and partially in an attempt to hold on to the success of his heyday. Is his world improved by the quest to find love and redemption in the arms of Marisa Tomei‘s “aging” exotic dancer? Or will he find an emotional sanctuary with his estranged daughter (Evan Rachel Wood)?
It’s from the same director of Requiem for a Dream… what do you think?

It’s laughs all round for this one folks, as we body slam into our first film of Wrestle-tober! Darren Aronofsky’s much lauded 2008 film is our cheery little topic for this week, and the whole team are in the ring for this one!

Jill and Peta are the wrestling beauties flying high off the top rope, Dion is hiding behind the Spanish announcers table and Quinny was the ref they knocked out about 10 seconds into the match.

Synopsis

A faded professional wrestler must retire, but finds his quest for a new life outside the ring a dispiriting struggle.
