In this lively study, Keri Walsh analyses his performances in key films - from Diner (1982), Rumble Fish (1983) and 9 1/2 Weeks (1986) to Sin City (2005), The Wrestler (2008) and Iron Man II (2010) - and traces the development and multiple transformations of Rourke's star image. Taking an in-depth look at his colourful career in its cultural and cinematic contexts, Walsh explores how this controversial, talented and undersung Hollywood star has intrigued audiences from the 1980s to the present day. 600 10 $a Rourke, Mickey. 600 10 $a Rourke, Mickey $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Film criticism. 600 17 $a Rourke, Mickey. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00283885 710 2 $a British Film Institute, $e issuing body. 830 0 $a Film stars. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180106054605.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=39ACDE9CC17411E49647BAD4DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
