New Looks at ‘The Wrestler’ and a Preview of Mansell’s Score
The talk of the town right now is Aronofsky's latest
It’s strange we still haven’t heard any word on a studio snatching up Darren Aronofsky’s The Wrestler, a film getting high marks from all that have seen it including the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival. This is a film that can appeal to the Oscar crowd based on its pedigree, the WWE crowd since it centers on a professional wrestler and the fanboy crowd since it is directed by the man who helmed The Fountain, Requiem for a Dream and Pi. I mean, this film has “SOLD” written all over it.
In all the excitement I have just added two new images to the gallery for the picture including the one teased above and another of Marisa Tomei sporting a “The Devil Made Me Do It” patch. Where will this film land and what kind of Oscar attention will it get? Actor talk for Mickey Rourke has already started, rumblings of a Best Picture nod after its top prize at Venice and even chatter around Tomei for Supporting.
Stay tuned to my “The Contenders” page for continuous updates, the latest of which sends you to Clint Mansell’s MySpace Page for a preview of the score.
