See this film: Fake It So Real at the Brattle

Darren Aronofsky's The Wrestler (2008) introduced many moviegoers to the sweaty, bloody, brutal world of professional wrestling on the fringes of the WWE. Robert Greene shows us more of this subculture in his documentary Fake It So Real, in which he explores with cinema-vérité intensity the dedicated gladiators of the Millennium Wrestling Federation of Lincolnton, North Carolina. Greene will be on hand for discussions after the screening. It's at the Brattle Theatre, 40 Brattle St, Cambridge | Mon, July 25 @ 8 pm | $10; $8 students, seniors | 617.876.6837 or brattlefilm.org.
