As predicted Slumdog Millionaire swept the 81’st Oscars with 8 awards. MILK also won several awards including Best Actor, upsetting Mickey Rourke’s winning streak. The entire show had a new refreshing tone that was welcome and seriously needed.

Film Independent’s, “Spirit Awards” follow up

February 22, 2009 By 790 12 Comments

The Wrestler and Frozen River were big winners today at the 2009 Spirit Awards in Santa Monica, California. The live show went down almost perfectly as Steve Coogan pulled off a fairly decent job as host. I haven’t seen Hamlet 2, but he certainly has theatrical talent.

The Wrestler – Review

January 13, 2009 By 790 21 Comments

Darren Aronofsky, takes us into the brutally realistic world of pro-wrestling with breathtaking visuals, and heavy emotion.
Mickey Rourke is RANDY “THE RAM” ROBINSON, a famous Professional Wrestling star from the 80’s. The film’s opening is a brilliantly rendered collage of Pro-Event billboard posters covering the time span of his glorious wrestling career.
