The Wrestler

We finally saw The Wrestler. I thought it was good, Lee LOVED it. He kept muttering wrestling moves, singing the 80's songs (Balls To The Wall, for example), and reminiscing about his childhood during the movie. I thought the acting was superb. Mickey Rourke and Marisa Tomei, not too shabby, definitely Oscar-Worthy. The Wrestler was depressing and hopeless. But, as Lee commented, it makes you think that the people you idolize, be it wrestlers, actors, or artists...sometimes, in their reality they aren't such good people. It is a movie that makes you think about your life. And that it's never to late to write your own ending.
