MICKEY ROURKE TALK Shane Adam Bassett

Mickey has a small role as cool. layered Billy Chambers, in the finale of the Mariachi Trilogy, Robert Rodriguez directed actioner, Once Upon A Time In Mexico (2003)

I go through fellow cast members alongside Mickey, 
things I noticed or worth mentioning and more.  Includes Robert Rodriguez discussing deleted scenes involving Mickey. Enjoy!

Lesser know British gangster action drama A Hitman in London, also known as Skin Traffik (2015) has Mickey Rourke as mysterious Vogel, a small role but compelling.

Stuntman, producer and actor Gary Daniels, is the skilled above average fighting lead alongside all star brilliant B-cast Jeff Fahey, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, Eric Roberts, Alan Ford of SNATCH (2000) and underrated Dominique Swain. 

Not the best but rough around the edges action with an emotional story makes this one work, just. 
Enjoy my rundown with a focus on Mickey and his paisley collared shirt, I'd wear it.

F.T.W (1994) also known as The Last Ride. 

Rundown of fairly unknown, quite interesting cowboy drama with Mickey Rourke as rodeo maestro Frank T. Wells trying to live a normal life after a stint in jail for a crime he did not commit. 
Frank also falls in love with an unlikely, unhinged individual played by Footloose, Short Cuts talent, Lori Singer.
 
Iconic, Brion James also stars, as does Peter Berg, and an array of musicians including Charlie Sexton. 

Rundown of Mississippi filmed Hunt Club, better than average revenge thriller indie, terrific acting and a solid role for Mickey Rourke as villain Virgil.

He's part of a secret pact of men who meet on a regular basis to hunt humans. Main premise is familiar, but this has a message and is particularly well directed by Elizabeth Blake-Thomas, who you will hear a bit from during podcast. Also starring;
Mena Suvari, Casper Van Dien, Jessica Belkin, Maya Stojan, Jason + Jeremy London.

HUNT CLUB available to rent on digital platforms US

True story of the kidnapping of Irish champion racehorse, Shergar.
Filmed in 1998, barely released in 1999, Mickey Rourke reprises his Celtic accent from A Prayer for the Dying (1987)

He is somewhat impressive a small prominent role as Gavin O'Rourke, a vindictive member of the Irish republican army overseeing this botched horse kidnapping for a ransom they'll never see.
Ian Holm, David Warner are great, also Andrew Connolly, Tom Walsh 
and wonderful Laura Murphy (reminding me of Maureen O'Sullivan) co-star.

Mickey was given a significant, small role by late great Tony Scott action melodrama Man on Fire (2004) 
also starring Christopher Walken, Dakota Fanning, my fellow Australian Radha Mitchell and the man Denzel Washington among others. 

Excellent movie has stood the test of time. 

I also discuss the deleted Mickey scenes featured on Blu Ray;
(Courtesy of 20th century fox home video) also hear comments on Mickey by director Tony Scott, who also hired Mickey to be in his later film, 
Domino (2019)
