Director Darren Aronofsky introduces Mickey Rourke, star of The Wrestler, at the Toronto premiere Sept. 7, 2008. Co-star Evan Rachel Wood is also onstage. The movie, as yet without a distributor, had won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival the previous evening and the audience was full of heavy hitters like Harvey Weinstein looking to see if the movie lived up to the hype. It did.
I'm glad he did this. This movie is like his "Raging Bull"/"Rocky" and I think it will definitely get some award noms for his acting.
