Being a man is a way of no return, so there are not many real men

Randy is a real man. This is how I feel after watching this movie.
I am not saying that a man who abandons his wife and children and engages in a one-night stand outside and forgets to eat with his daughter is a man.
The shooting technique of "The Wrestler" reminded me of "Once". I used a HandyCam to chase the film. Most of the time, it made people feel that the film was a documentary. lonely. You can see a lot from the story, and I see that Randy is a real man.
Randy has the hobbies of men: games, women, wrestling. I think the nature of men is to be addicted, addicted to beauty, addicted to games... I now have many friends addicted to photography, selling cars and buying Lycra, I can understand all of these, men have a kind of obsession, when this kind of obsession is carried When you are sensible, it becomes perseverance, and when this kind of attachment loses reason, it becomes madness. If you are a girl, do you probably remember the craziness when you fell in love with your first love boyfriend (isn’t it okay if you don’t go to bed?)?
That is irrational obsession. If you find a boyfriend who is 20 years older than you, you may not be able to experience that kind of madness. Instead, it is meticulous care, a trace of warmth that always entangles you, which is rational. Persistent. Randy, he is also addicted, he is addicted to his glorious past, he is addicted to his past, he is not Robin, he is Sledgehammer Randy. His addiction is crazy, there is no trace of reason, he can give up family, love, and life, just to repeat his classic moments 20 years ago... The man is like this in
"Slam Dunk", I remember Sakura Mu said: I am a basketball player, which in turn inspired the gorilla's fighting spirit. And every time Randy said, or wanted to say that he was a professional wrestler, the pictures we saw were very bleak.
"I'm a professional wrestler"
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid your heart can no longer cope with that kind of sports."
For any man, this is a bad news that is more painful than death.
Imagine that you are a photography-loving person and you have lost your eyesight. You are a music-loving person but have lost your ears... Wrestling is a cruel sport, hurting yourself and entertaining others. What you need is A strong heart... and this heart is broken.
Randy tried to restore the friendship between father and daughter, trying to get the love of a woman. Try to accept that you can't wrestle and live in the supermarket with fresh goods.
He can do it, he can do it well, he can do it well and has done it. But the blood of a man will not stop flowing in his heart because of his withered heart.
If you give me a true love, give up everything now, and only exchange for a momment, would you like it?
The process of wrestling is exciting and painful, like falling in love with a woman who keeps hurting you, which is comparable to smoking and drinking.


Is there a man who really stopped smoking because smoking is harmful to his health?
Is there a man who fell in love with a woman who kept hurting you and truly gave up this persistent love?
If one day you smoke another cigarette, you will die, but you can die standing, or you can crawl on the ground for a lifetime.
If one day, you make love with your beloved woman again, you will die, but you die in the bed, die in the arms of the one you love, or you can cut off the dick and live a lifetime.
When everything that is lost makes you a man, tortured your man's heart for a long time, and there is nothing else in this world that makes you clingy?
Would you like to die like a man?

Randy died in the end, the movie didn’t tell
but he was a real man from beginning to end.

The Wrestler quotes

  • Randy 'The Ram' Robinson: The only place I get hurt is out there. The world don't give a shit about me.

  • Cassidy: [to Ram, as she touches his scars and after he shows her some of the scars he has accumulated throughout his career] He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.
