you know what, i've never actually seen the film... but it's by one of my all time fave directors. it's just about the only one of his i've never seen.
as for the wrestler - it's nobody massively famous if you're not a wrestling fan, really, i think. though he has worked for all the major promotions in the last 20 years (yes, it's a guys name... but it works for a girl too), has had a lot of success and is still active in the industry today.
i'll have to think of some better clues than this. if i make it too obvious my life wont be worth living!
