There’s been a lot of buzz surrounding some interesting news coming out of a recent script review of Darren Aronofsky’s latest flick Black Swan. According to a reviewer the script includes:

ecstasy-induced hungry aggressive angry sex

Interesting news not only for the perv in all of us, but also because the two actresses cast to play the leads in Black Swan are Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman. There really is nothing more to this other than the review which can be found here, but you have to admit, when this gets close to hitting theaters in 2010, people will want to see what all of the fuss is about. Black Swan is the story of two ballerinas – Portman plays the sweet, innocent lead in the ballet Swan Lake, while Kunis plays a much darker, younger ballerina. Alright, perv time is over kids, g’night.

This is possibly the best acceptance speech I’ve ever heard. This is of course Mickey Rourke at the Spirit Awards, which happened on February 21st, making an acceptance speech for the Best Male Lead Film for his role in The Wrestler. First off we have to pre-warn you of the language, but that’s the best part. It’s so real and unrehearsed and quite amazing, none of that fluffy PR prepared stuff, this shit you can tell was straight from the dome and heart. Just straight comedy, watch and you won’t be disappointed. Here’s a quote “…banging the girl in the ass in the bathroom…”

Although I’ve seen Pi, Requiem for a Dream, I still believe The Fountain is Darren Aronofsky’s masterpiece.  The Wrestler is Aronofsky’s latest film with Mickey Rourke taking the helm as Randy “The Ram” Robinson, an aged wrestler that lives for the thrill of his profession despite his aging body.  After watching the trailer, I thought Mickey Rourke really captured the role of seasoned wrestler who can’t give up the game, m.i.a. father/bff to Evan Rachel Wood’s character and comfort buddy to Marisa Tomei’s role.  The trailer shows no sign of visual effects like that of The Fountain.  Instead Aronofsky lets Rourke close the deal on this movie.  And with Clint Mansell behind the soundtrack, this should be a winner.
