Related to the last, can't resist posting this faux-trailer, Requiem for a Day Off...

The movie's got guts.

Saw The Wrestler on a whim last night, and it's still rattling around my head. Good sign. An entirely tactful film that takes place in a thoroughly tactless world. Mickey deserves all the praise he's been getting. Read Roger Ebert's review of the Darren Aronofsky's film here.
