Play is like life - is it sadness or happiness?

Just like the face of the former wrestling king on the poster was covered by long hair, the scene at the beginning of the film has been deliberately avoiding close-up of this face, is it because it is afraid of evoking people's memory of the handsome man in "9 and a half weeks", or is it worried about the audience acceptance and endurance, I do not know. Mr. Lu Xun said that tragedy is to destroy beautiful things for others to see. For this film, I think it is not enough to destroy. Compared with the similar theme "Million Baby", if it weren't for Mickey Rourke's own legendary experience and command I'm afraid I can only give it 3 stars.

Compared with Mickey Rourke's dramatic life, the film is completely original, without any carving, and the language of the lens is full of the flavor of a documentary. Except for the desperate KO nirvana, RAM is always persistent. He stroked his long hair well, as if maintaining the last bit of dignity and superiority. But in order to make a living, he still has to make low-key gestures to the supermarket manager, ask for a temporary job, and even give up the name Ram on the nameplate—the title he used to be proud of, the purpose is to forget that he started another life. kind of life. But is it that easy? When the boiling blood cools down, it can only solidify and form scars, so it can only keep burning, and it is like burning a candle at both ends, destined to have a dazzling and short-term ending.

In the near future, I'm going to rehearse "9 and a half weeks" and "Wild Orchid", for Rourke, Bless!
