The Wrestler
« on: September 08, 2008, 01:01:25 PM »
Rourke plays this lead role of the Film Festival winner. I'll definately watch it just because of Rourke playing the leading role. I really like Rourke as an actor. Why doesn't hollywood pick him up more often for bigger flicks??

Cause he's not Will Smith?   

I recall reading something once about him, saying he had a hard time getting movies cause he had/or has too much additional baggage... liked him in "Man on Fire"

He did beat the crap out of his G/F in '94, and got a DUI in Miami in 2003...hell, he'd fit right in with the Hollyweird crowd! :D  I like the "Anti-hero" personna that he tends to get lead roles in.

yea, Nolte's probably got him beat on rap sheets, hell look at Robert Downy Jr...
The stuff I was thinking of was earlier, like before "Harley Davidson and the Malboro Man" or "Heart something or other" with that girl from the Cosby show
