The Wrestler

Rating:
Release Date: 16-01-2009
Starring: Mickey Rourke, Marissa Tomei

Movie of the Month - Hollywood's favourite ex-boxer Mickey Rourke blows us away in the ring and in front of the camera

Following the life of pro-wrestler Randy 'The Ram' Robinson - a brief success in the late 80s who now stacks supermarket shelves and lives in a trailer between small, low-paid matches - this brilliant film unflinchingly shows the grim realities of the wrestling business. From steroids and whispered in-ring choreography to awful injuries and poverty, it's a harrowing, mesmerising 2-hour giant. Oscar for Rourke, please. 

FREEBIES: We've got 3 The Wrestler posters SIGNED BY MICKEY ROURKE, to give away! Just enter your details below and we'll enter you into our giveaway draw. Closing date: 16 February 2009
