My first favourite actor, the magnificent Mickey Rourke, was born September 16, 1952 in Schenectady. He turns 69 today. I loved him in Diner, Angel Heart and The Pope of Greenwich Village, seen here. #botd #otd #mickeyrourke #happybirthday #schenectady #newyork #actor #80s #legend #cool
Take a look at my latest book review that deals with the first biography of Steve McQueen to be released after his death. What I thought was a cheap, dime store paperback was actually the real deal. All the info you need is in this book. Read more at my site.

Fresh up on the website it's my review of the first novel by Quentin Tarantino, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. With this book, you get much more than the film. And much less. It's a unique animal. And you need not be a fan of Tarantino's to get much out of his celebration of the Hollywood of the 1960's.

The third in an unexpected trilogy of articles concerning actor and singer Michael Parks is out now. In 1969, MGM made a pilot for a proposed series to star Parks called Then Came Bronson. It aired on TV domestically and in theatres in Europe. I’ve been surprised to learn how many people cherish the memory of the series. What really surprised me, though, was how deeply affected I was by the film that co-starred 21-year-old Bonnie Bedelia. This is a little more than a review, I guess. Take a look and see what I mean.
