Overlooked Film

This is a timeless film. I don't think it was truly appreciated in 2008.

How was it not at least nominated for BP? How did Rourke not win BA?

'The Wrestler' is a far more memorable film than Slum Dog Millionaire, or any of the other nominated films from 2008.

Best film of 2008, its not even close.

Best film of 2008 by a mile. Maybe best film of the decade.

Any film going up against Slum Dog would have lost that yr. It was just ashame it was The Wrestler.
