"The Wrestler" on USA Today's watch list

The Wrestler is listed as one of the Top 20 films to watch in an article regarding the Toronto Film Festival. "A retired wrestler with a stripper girlfriend and a heart condition is tempted into a rematch with his old foe," reads the article. "A Rocky for grapplers? Perhaps. More likely: a Mickey Rourke comeback courtesy of director Darren Aronofsky (The Fountain)." [Thanks to Dot Net correspondent Richard "Dick" Twilling]

Powell's POV: The film festival starts Thursday, so I'll be watching for reviews of Arnofsky's film.
