This book explores important life lessons through the lens of Mickey Rourke movies. Fifteen movies are discussed from all phases of his extraordinary career, from his teen heartthrob years of the early 1980s to his more recent work as a token bad guy. Despite never having taken a film class or paid full-price to see a movie, the author explores each film and makes a seemingly endless series of insightful, and often humorous, observations about the human condition. In fact, this book features a minimum of two jokes per page.
