When beyond a great performance there is a dramatic personal story...

Rating: 10/10 (13 January 2009)

I have just seen this and now my heart is totally divided. I loved the movie, 9/10. And Mickey Rourke, this guy I had never heard of (I even thought the character was real) and which I found out through this movie made a brilliant performance.
I don't know if anyone watched Irina Palm, starred by Marianne Faithful, who also has a long story on her back... I don't know, but when you feel beyond a great performance there is a dramatic personal story, a story of drowning and coming back... Man, I'm speechless.
I loved all movies I've seen from Aranofsky, from Pi to the present. But I think after this he made it into my TOP5 directors for a long time.
I'm not really good at reviews, I'm actually a n00b on it, and my main language is not even English, but I just can say HEY, watch this movie and I hope it gets to you just just half of what has touched me.
