cpnews Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 Wass wasn't the only NYC nightlifer to get some screen time in the Wrestler. Armin, the owner of the now closed Socialista, had a bit part of a doctor in the film. But it turns out the authorities in Iran (where Armin is from) were none too happy with the movie. According to the Observer: His father, Ali, had been taken into custody by the Iranian police for questioning. “They came and picked him up at 7:30 in the morning, and basically they were asking about me because of my role in The Wrestler. Ali was released a few hours later. God bless America. [Observer] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
