新科金球奖影帝Mickey Rourke：咋整成了这副模样？

　

    周日晚间打开电视时，已经很晚，电影金球奖发奖仪式只看了个尾巴，知道最佳影片是Slumdog Millionaire，最佳男演员是Mickey Rourke。这两项获奖者应该说都属于underdogs之列，评选结果也许会让许多人跌破眼镜。

Mickey Rourke now 

    但真正让我感到惊讶的是看到多年久违了的Mickey Rourke，尤其是他外形方面的变化，让人不敢相信眼前这个标本式的wrestler形象，就是多年以前与Kim Basinger合演9 1/2 Weeks的那个英俊，风流，潇洒的华尔街掮客。记得九十年代初期刚来美国时，在什么地方看到，Rourke曾以其英俊硬朗的外形和独特的男人气质而被誉为sex symbol，甚至有人把他与马龙白兰度和罗伯特德尼罗相比较。不可思议的是究竟是什么样的生活让他进化成了眼前这副模样 - totally transformed，if not deformed。除了岁月不饶人每个人都要经历不可逆转的生理衰老过程之外，he must have gone through a tough life, as he himself put it in his award-acceptance speech, “I was almost out of business a few years ago.”

    出于好奇，刚才查了一下，据说Rourke九十年代初期演艺事业中落以后，曾靠打拳维持生计，入不敷出，甚至一度仰仗朋友接济度日。在金球奖颁发仪式的感谢致辞中，他提到除了制片导演之外，还要感谢他的dog们，“Sometimes when you're alone," he said, "all you got is your dog." 言辞中依稀流露出对世态炎凉和生活艰辛的感叹，其情可悯。

    And now with the award in hand, Mickey Rourke becomes a bona fide come-back kid. Wish him luck！

想起这首歌，（http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmoE8_U-JTw）

I’m 15 for a moment
Caught in between 10 and 20
And I’m just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are

I’m 22 for a moment
And she feels better than ever
And we’re on fire
Making our way back from Mars

15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
15 there’s never a wish better than this
When you've only got a hundred years to live...

I’m 33 for a moment
still the man, but you see I’m a they
A kid on the way, babe
A family on my mind

I’m 45 for a moment
The sea is high
And I’m heading into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life

15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose yourself
Within a morning star
15 I’m all right with you
15 there’s never a wish better than this
When you've only got a hundred years to live...

Halftime goes by
Suddenly you’re wise
Another blink of an eye
67 is gone
the sun is getting high
We’re moving on...

I’m 99 for a moment
I’m dying for just another moment
And I’m just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are

15 there's still time for you
22 I feel her too
33 you're on your way
Every day's a new day

15 there’s still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15 there’s never a wish better than this
When you've only got a hundred years to live

回复melly的评论:

We all go through the same thing – I look much older today than yesterday :-) - unless someone can live like the protagonist in the movie, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

The song in the video clip is The Wicked Game by Chris Issac, and you’re right that it fits the movie charaters pretty well, as the whole love story in the end is a kind of wicked game.

回复胡梦绿的评论:

是啊，人变老是很自然的事情，但像Rourke这样大的变化， 让人难以置信。

谢谢！

I can hardly believe the one in upper pictures is the same one as in the lower pictures. Remind me of what I happened to see my old pictures lately. :))

The song in the video clip matches his sexy look at young age.

噢,原来就是他呀!变化太大了!!
听了他的感言,挺悲凉的.
