High
And Low
Christopher
Heard
Having become established as a global screen idol, respected actor and
sex symbol during the 1980s, Mickey Rourke’s well publicised personal problems
saw him labelled an
uncontrollable maverick. These issues drove him to turn his back on
acting to embark upon a brief but intense sojourn as a professional
boxer. After retiring from the ring, Rourke set about re-establishing
himself in Hollywood, a process that culminated with his portrayal of
Marv, a lovelorn sociopath, in the big-budget adaptation of Frank
Miller’s acclaimed Sin City
graphic novels. Featuring extensive interviews with Rourke, Mickey Rourke High and Low, charts the trajectory of this unique
actor’s amazing life.
