The Wrestler Trailer Slams Home!

I am beyond excited for this movie. Darren Aronofsky is among my favorite filmmakers, and after the (undeserved, in my opinion) critical hate-fest on 2006's The Fountain, I'm glad this movie is getting as much love as it is (I'm also glad we don't have to wait another 6 years for a new Aronofsky film). Don't believe the hype or unfamiliar with the director's work? Check out the new trailer for The Wrestler to get your spandex shorts all bundled up in excitement. Mickey Rourke (turning in what everyone is saying is a career-defining performance), Marisa Tomei, and Evan Rachel Wood star in the movie, set for limited release on December 17, 2008, and then expanding to wide on January 16, 2009..
