*Special Stars- Mickey Rourke, Marisa Tomei.
*Theme- Sometimes you have no way to change things.
*Trivia/location/goofs- Shot during the snowy winter in New Jersey. extremely low budget and staged wrestling events for the film plot. This film brought Mickey Roarke out of retirement to back doing feature films. This film won the Venice Film festival award.
