197 - The Wrestler

NOTE: There was an issue with our audio this week – we apologize in advance. This week we enter the squared circle and try not to turn heel as we discuss Darren Aronofsky’s “The Wrestler”. The 1001 by 1 crew is joined by Greg “Oz” (frequent co-host on Best Picture Cast and Worst Picture Cast) to dissent the world of wrestling, the wonder that is Marisa Tomei, and is Mickey Rourke would have reached the same performance with a director other than Aronofsky. Also, this week Joey recommends “The Iron Claw” (currently on HBO Max), Adam recommends “pi” (available to rent on most major platforms), Britt recommends “Gaea Girls” (currently on Kanopy), and Oz recommends “Black Swan” (currently on Hulu).
