Take your ideals on the road

Mickey Rourke, one of the sexiest men of the 80s. After graduating from high school, he became a professional boxer. He had to bid farewell to the boxing arena because of a severe brain injury during the match, and entered the film circle by accident. After nearly 20 years of ups and downs, he was disheartened by the film circle because of repeated bad films, and he returned to professional boxing and achieved good results. Helpless years are not forgiving, and after just a few years, he withdrew from boxing due to severe brain damage. At this time, in order to repair the nose and cheekbones that were smashed in the game, he had undergone many cosmetic surgeries, but it ended in failure, resulting in a stiff face, and it seemed a little powerless to return to the film circle for life. Until 2008, Rock took over the "Wrestling King" in which he played the role of "Randy". It was this role with a similar fate to Rock that made him once again. Mickey Rock won the golden ball. Award, and has since then had the halo of a superstar.

If you watched 1986's "Nine and a Half Weeks" and happened to watch 2008's "The Wrestling King," you'd have a hard time believing that the two films starred the same man, Mickey Rourke. In "Love You Nine and a Half Weeks", Locke's delicate face, charming smile, and elegant dress can kill almost all women in seconds. In "Wrestling King", Locke only has a strong body and a bloated and stiff face. The great difference in appearance and the repeated blows to his career have allowed the news media to find a subject to write about, so Locke has become a negative example of the American film industry. So after the success of "The King of Wrestling", more people think that if Locke can change his bad temper and steadfastly mix in the film circle, he will definitely be better than now, at least that beautiful face will not become so unbearable.

In this world, there are people who like to judge other people's lives and regard themselves as judges of other people's lives. Although most of them have no bad intentions, they are still quite annoying. When it comes to being a professional boxer who has been disfigured because of the competition and being a star that has attracted much attention, most people will choose the latter, and most people's choices are often philistine and shallow. At the same time, because of the concept of "the minority obeys the majority", those who choose the former generally suffer from huge psychological pressure. Therefore, Locke's choice is a brave choice.

Those self-proclaimed "referees", have you noticed that Locke has been interested in boxing since he was a child? Did you notice that Locke was very eye-catching when he first entered the world of boxing? Did you notice that Locke returned to boxing for the second time and won eight in a row, only three short of taking the lightweight title? If it weren't for the brain injury, I am afraid that Locke would not enter the film circle in this life, and he will definitely continue to be active in his favorite boxing circle. Entering the film industry is just for the sake of eating, and since it is for eating, what is the obstacle to staying or not, whether it is successful or not?

Of course, I also believe that Locke was also delighted when he was affirmed again with "The King of Wrestling", but this joy would be mixed with revenge for those who had despised him, and it was definitely not as pure and pure as the joy of being raised by the referee. strong.

Locke's story ends here, and nothing I want to express is self-evident. If you still have ideals, then please ignore the so-called "advice" and take your ideals on the road. There may be no hope, no beauty, and no results ahead, but this road is still the one you should take the most.
