Marisa Tomei has been nominated again for Oscar along with Mickey Rourke in the recent hit “The Wrestler”. Marisa Tomei had won the Academy Award in Best Supporting Actor Category for My Cousin Vinny. She had been considered earlier for the award for In the Bedroom.

Marisa Tomei was born on December 4, 1964. She had been equally acclaimed artist on stage, film and television.

The Cosby Show Spinoff a Different World brought her into the halls of prominence. She had been contributed towards the commercial success of films like, What Women Want, Anger Management and Wild Hogs. She had received an all out praise from the critic quarters for her performance in Unhook the Stars, Before the Devil Knows You are Dead.

The Wrestler provided Marisa Tomei another opportunity to show her acting skills and she took full advantage of it and her role as a stripper in the movie has brought her yet another nomination.

The Wrestler is a genuine effort by writer director Darren Aronofsky that has brought once cute guy and now a ripe-aged wrestler into the eyes of the film critics. The Wrestler is perhaps has few chunks of Rouke’s own life experiences where in the leading role Rouke has played well the role of wrestler who wants a new beginning in his professional and personal life. The road to redemption for the wrestler goes long while touching his estranged daughter and a stripper on the way.

The age has no meaning for Hollywood celebrities, at 45, Marisa Tomei was looking stunning in pink dress and peep toe pumps at the 30th Gala of the Museum of Contemporary Art’s at MOCA Grand Avenue earlier this month.
