This was the first movie Starring Mickey I saw After The Wrestler..
Before The Wrestler I never even knew who Mickey Rourke was. I was like 24 when The Wrestler came out and I loved it as I am a big time Pro Wrestling fan. Anyways I had the advantage of watching the Wrestler without being shocked at the transformation of Mickeys face, because i had no idea who he was. Still Though I couldn't turn on the TV or Listen to the radio without people talking about his face. Finally a couple years later I happened to watch Hardly Davidson and the Marlboro Man...Which btw has since become one of my favorite movies ever...and i finally get what everyone was talking about. Goodness. I wouldn't believe the actor who played Harley Davidson was actually Mickey if it wasn't for the voice. I'm a straight male and even i can say Mickey was one handsome dude in his prime. I see no reason for him not to grow into old age as a handsome man...Now we will never know do to plastic surgery.
