  • MICKEY ROURKE BRINGS BACK THE COOL ACCEPTANCE SPEECH

    23 Feb 2009 by Seth Rotherham in Vibe

    I’m so glad that Mickey Rourke is winning awards again. Not because it’s Mickey Rourke and he is just awesome, but because he gives acceptance speeches the coolness they lost many many years ago.

    Check out this outstanding acceptance speech he gave after winning the Best Male Lead in the 2009 Independent Spirit Awards.

     

    A short excerpt:

    “Like I got, he deserves a second chance,” Rourke said of Roberts, who eventually yelled, “Accept your award!” at the man onstage.
    “I just got done talking to the Santa Monica Police Department,” Rourke continued. “They gave me a bed to sleep in 10 years ago. And I thank them—I asked them for two pillows, they told me to f–k off. But anyway, thank you, Darren Aronofsky, for believing in me…I’ve told people in the past that directors like [him] come around every 25 years…He is one tough son of a bitch and he don’t like it when I say that ’cause he goes, ‘Mickey, you’ll scare all the other actors away from me.’ But Darren, you know what, if they ain’t got the balls to bring it, then f–k ’em, you know.”
    He then forgets costar Marisa Tomei’s name—but gives her quite the shout-out anyway—and thanks the WWE and Vince McMahon for being so supportive while their film exposed the seedier side of pro wrestling–“like steroids and the cocaine and the bangin’ the girl…in the bathroom.”

     

    So cool..
