The French response to The Wrestler (quoted in the New York Times):
'The Wrestler', directed by Darren
Aronofsky in a European new-realist style, will not open in French theaters
until February, but it won the top prize at the Venice Film Festival, and French
critics in particular raved about Mr. Rourke:
“More of a freak than ever, more impressive as well, he is the physical
incarnation of the American landscape, its dreams, its violence, its loneliness
and we only come to realize this every three years, each time he attempts a
comeback,” is how Philippe Azoury, of Libération, put it in September. (Who here
even knew Mr. Rourke has a new movie every three years?)
Mr. Azoury had still more to say. “What he gives here, physically, in terms
of wacko masochism (wrestling with broken glass, staple gun and barbed wire) as
well as spattered sensitivity, is without equal."
(Alessandra Stanley, New York Times)
