RE: The Wrestler - Official Trailer
It is still incredulous that he didn't win Best Actor for this performance. Sean Penn was great in Milk but even he admitted that Mickey deserved to win. When will he ever get another chance? Those Hollywood sleazeballs have long memories and Mickey didn't win because he had pissed off a lot of people at the height of his career. The film isn't a masterpiece because the female characters are poorly written. Tomei is the hooker with the heart of gold and the daughter is the angry lesbian.
