I know I'm a day late to the party, but I just had to post Mickey Rourke's awesome acceptance speech for his (much deserved) Golden Globe for Best Actor. (This is the East Coast one with director Darren Aronofsky flipping Mickey off. Oohh, a middle finger!!) Best moment of the night (Kate Winslet referring to Angelina Jolie as "the other one" is a close second.)
I don't know how he did it, but Mickey stole my speech. I always planned to thank Axl and my dogs if I ever won an award.
Seriously though, everyone HAS to see this movie, even if you're not a rasselin' fan. I'm sorry I'm fantarding , but there is a reason for all the hype. He's THAT good. (So good, that you forget that Marissa Tomei is amazing as well.) You will never forget the character of Randy the Ram.
Plus, the soundtrack to the story rocks (including Bruce Springsteen's perfectly devastating theme) and the movie includes perhaps the best scripted conversation about music since the "Like a Virgin" debate in Reservoir Dogs.
See it, don't waste your money on that Gran Torino shit (now playing the role of Archie Bunker: Dirty Harry!)
