Episode The Wrestler (2008) | Ep. 43 - Part 2
Aronofsky shot it on a tiny budget with handheld cameras to give it a fly-on-the-wall rawness, a world away from his more stylised work. Luke, Westy, and Matt continue the story, building to that unforgettable final image.
We dig into the crew behind the film — the screenplay, Clint Mansell's score and the Springsteen title track, and the gritty cinematography — before breaking down the finale, the awards attention, and the film's legacy. Plus the hosts' final verdict and scores.
For Randy's life outside the ring — Aronofsky, the cast, the first half — Part 1 is the place.
