Talk about comebacks. After many years in the wilderness and being considered MIA professionally, Mickey Rourke, just like the washed-up character he plays, attempts [a return] to the big show in "The Wrestler." Not only does he pull it off

but Rourke creates a galvanizing, humorous, deeply moving portrait
 

that instantly takes its place among the great, iconic screen performances. An elemental story simply and brilliantly told

Darren Aronofsky’s fourth feature is a winner from every possible angle, although it will require deft handling by a smart distributor to overcome public preconceptions about Rourke, the subject matter and the nature of the film.

elicit (illicit, illegal)
solicit No soliciting [allowed] in this building. 
solicitude the tender solicitude of [parents]

It’s an ambitious agenda (typified by the slogan "transforming the way people see the world") 

that intends to galvanize film [activity] 

not just during the festival but year-round. The modernist design is by the firm behind the widely lauded Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Art. 

But the slightly ragtag (烏合之眾,賤民的) quality of King Street, 

a familiar strip to festgoers who stroll from red-carpet galas (慶祝) at Roy Thomson Hall down to after-parties, 

adds another wrinkle.
