Actor favorite Mickey Locke: The
returning prodigal son
was once as handsome as Brad Pitt, how did he become like this now? He once turned down "Rain Man" and waited for a bunch of good movies, and received countless bad movies. Is he stupid? When he was most frustrated, he relied on his friends to borrow 200 dollars a week to survive. What did he do in those years? Last year, with a "Wrestler" surprise hit, why did he come back?
This is the hottest Mickey Rock for the best actor Oscar.
Seeing Locke, who is now full of "devastated" faces, it is hard for anyone to imagine that the British "Guardian" once hailed him as "the Brad Pitt of the time." "Someone asked me:'Do you feel sorry when you see that you don't have the same face as you used to be?'" Locke, 52, laughed and said, "You know, when I was a boxer, I suffered a serious injury because of my nose. After six cosmetic operations, the doctor also cut off the flesh behind my ears to repair my face."
When he was young, he trained in Miami's Fifth Street Stadium, where boxing champion Ali started his career. At the age of 16, he played in the ring with middleweight champion Luis Rodriguez. However, two severe concussions ended his dream of becoming a professional boxer. Due to chance, he broke into the show business circle.
Locke’s initial brilliance is still a capital worth showing off, including Barry Levinson’s "Small Restaurant", Foco Pola’s "Betta", and Robert De Niro's "Angel Heart", which played against Robert De Niro. . The blockbuster "Love You Nine and a Half Weeks" starring with Kim Basinger made him synonymous with sex. At that time, Locke went smoothly, and also showed a little self-righteousness. When working with De Niro on "Angel Heart", in order to grab the show, Locke even attacked De Niro with ice cubes in his hand. The director quickly shouted "Stop" to stop Locke.
In 1990, Locke quickly went up and down after meeting his ex-wife Kerry Atters. The six-year married life of the two had ups and downs. He was arrested for beating Otus, and Otus was addicted to heroin. "We all have broken childhoods. We have not only the happiest time together, but also the most painful time." Locke, who had not contacted Otus for many years, recalled that it was painful for him to accompany his ex-wife to detoxification, "Even if you treat her thrown into an addiction treatment center, there are people who will provide her with drugs. I can only reduce the workload for her, always accompany her. I also tainted with this son of a bitch damn thing during this period. "
marriage extravagant, so Locke His savings gradually bottomed out, and he started filming for the money. For $2.6 million, he took over the bad action comedy movie "Iron Man Runs", and later included bad reviews such as "Deadly Moment" and "Blood Splattered Yellow Sand". "I ruined everything for money. I want money for luxury houses, famous cars, beauties, jewelry, and attendants."
Locke should indeed regret it, because he has missed countless good movies. When Dustin Hoffman called him and asked him to play the role of Tom Cruise in "Rain Man", he forgot to call him back. After that, he rejected the role played by Kevin Costner in "Untouchable", and both "Field Platoon" and "The Silent Lamb" passed him by. A few years later, he even rejected the later role of John Travolta in Pulp Fiction.
As he turned away from Hollywood more and more, he wanted to re-realize the most primitive dream-to be a boxer. In 1991, Locke switched careers as a boxer. At that time, he was pretty good, winning eight games in a row, making $1 million a year, and only three games short of winning the lightweight championship, but he withdrew from the game due to nervous problems. In 1995, he completely withdrew from boxing due to severe brain injury.
Out of helplessness, in 1997 he returned to the entertainment industry that made him love and hate. Locke had made too many enemies before, and his handsome face no longer made his comeback easier said than done. What makes the comeback even more difficult is that Locke, who has no big investment to come to his door, still has a weird temper, and he has become a difficult pronoun. In 2001, when negotiating a film, because the producer did not agree to let his beloved Chihuahua appear, he went away.
Locke's life quickly fell into a stretched situation. "At that time I started selling my beloved motorcycles, and every one sold can last for half a year." When all the valuables were sold out, and the most difficult time, Locke relied on his friends to borrow 200 dollars a week to live. Eat McDonald's."
Although the popularity is not good, Locke's once charm has influenced a generation of Hollywood. With his former fans becoming the backbone of Hollywood, Locke has got many good opportunities. Sean Penn’s "Swear Never Give Up", Steve Basmi’s "Animal Factory", and Robert Rodriguez’s "Sin City" all let Locke play a role.
But the most touching is director Darren Aronofsky. He strongly recommended Locke to play "The Wrestler". Locke didn't appreciate it at first. "When I got the script, I thought it was pretty normal." In Locke's view, wrestling is just a boring derivative of the noble boxing sport. When Aronovsky promised that Locke could change all the lines in the script, he agreed to take the filming.
When the news of Locke’s acceptance of the filming was confirmed, Darren found that he could not find the investment at all, so this blockbuster that was originally intended to be a magnificent drama was forced to turn into a small-cost independent film, and for this reason , Darren dared to face Locke with his middle finger, dare to ask this unruly prodigal son to be obedient. "This guy has the courage. In order to be effective, I gained 35 pounds in six months. All my muscles are just like fake replacements." Except for the muscles that made Locke proud, he wrestling performance after training. Even more compliments. Thanks to Darren's persistence, "The Wrestler" became the most autobiographical work of 2008.
