“The Wrestler” is off to a good start

Darren Aronofsky’s new film, The Wrestler, stars Mickey Rourke as a retired pro wrestler pummeling his way through independent shows for one last shot at his rival. Marisa Tomei also stars. As a stripper. Not sure what that has to do with wrestling. Maybe wrestlers, like normal people, enjoy unwinding at the local strip joint after a hard day of fake fighting/body hugging similarly half-naked, oily spandex fetishists. I suppose it makes their profession seem less homoerotic.
