I fucking love Mickey Rourke. Here’s his amazing acceptance speech from last night’s Independent Spirit Awards. Allow me to point out some of the highlights:
- He spends an entire minute begging someone to give Eric Roberts a job.
- Says “I don’t know what you do honey” when referring to the trophy girl.
- Dedicates his award to his dead dog Loki and chokes up.
- Thanks “all the girls” including the “little one” he calls “gap tooth”.
- Gives props to
MelissaMarisa Tomei for “bringing it” and “climbing the pole well”.- Says they exposed controversial issues in the film like the “steroids, and the cocaine, and the banging the girl in the ass in the bathroom”.
