Is Rourke Going To Wrestle In A Nomination?

I don't report on too many festival news because...frankly, there's just too much of it. Plus I don't like campaigning a film "too" much until I've seen it (though some movies, like "Milk," I blog about a lot just because I'm excited about it). That said I have been hearing an overwhelming amount of positive buzz about Darren Aronofsky's "The Wrestler." Particularly I've heard that Mickey Rourke's performance is one of those unforgettable performances that only comes along once a year. Since this is a lead role, maybe Rourke will have a good shot at the winning slot in the Best Actor category? Maybe the picture will even sneak into some other categories. Either way, this is one to look out for.
