Travolta?

Of its Route how would one even tell? Lol
Another excuse for some face work anyway

Max Power said...

LOL Tricia. He's definitely been beaten with the ugly stick.

Rourke *

MDAnderson said...

Wig, face and body is a complete mess. Bring back 9 1/2 weeks Mickey.

Tricia13 said...

He used to be so handsome in a rugged way(Diner/Pope of Greenwich Village and the 9.5🥰weeks.) shame he would’ve aged nicely I bet

Tricia13 said...

Yesssssssss. One of my faves. Amazing soundtrack too

Sd Auntie said...

I think MR can still scrap despite being elderly. Did not know he dropped the bitch and made the switch. Oh well

Kellikopter said...

I'm getting Kevin Spacey vibes on this one. He's got a record of hitting on straight men and was rumored to have gotten beaten up over it before (when he claimed he was robbed in England).

Kellikopter said...

And I would argue he's been demoted to B list after his fall from Grace last year.

Aquagirl said...

Don’t think it’s Rourke. Since he was a boxer I’d think he’d be able to defend himself if someone tried to beat him up.

Agree about 9 1/2 weeks though!

Spacey would have been identified as ‘disgraced’

Tricia13 said...

🔥

Aquagirl said...

Have heard that about Spacey but not sure of his rating now. Also, would he still be mostly movie despite House of Cards? Can’t remember how Enty usually describes him because he’s really triple threat.

Zebra Seasoning said...

Oh Mickey. You were so beautiful. Whyyy did you feel the need to be a boxer and whyyyy didn't you have a better plastic surgeon?

Also- I have no idea who this blind is about.

Cuba Gooding Jr. Ralph Finnes.

Substance D said...

William F Buckley used to cruise for rough trade. He called it his "habit". I'd say Spaced Out fits that profile. Likes to get thrown around the room after a day playing the urbane wit. Tony Randall, Buck Henry. That kind of persona.
BTW, speaking of Buck Henry, does anyone remember his Uncle Buck pedophile skits on SNL when he'd babysit Gilda and Laraine who played preteen girls? I'm guessing those are no longer available from the archives.

Hanks?

Unknown said...

Mickey would usually be able to to defend himself....unless he was very drunk, which he might be if he was sloppily making a pass at a straight man(?)

So I guess the consensus is the he's bisexual? What a character!

Vita said...

Definitely sounds like Spacey, who it's surprising doesn't look worse than Mickey based upon the rumored frequency of his relentless lechery. However, I agree that he might have "disgraced" in his descriptor.

Substance-- is that true about Buckley, Randall and Henry, or were you just mentioning guys of the "urbane wit" sort?

lightgirl said...

Jon Voight got any leanings in that direction?
But I think Montana got it, John Travolta.

Lisa said...

In no universe is Tom Hanks B+. Come on.

I agree that this is Cuba Gooding Jr even though I feel B+ is generous.

Gator said...

Rourke used to be a boxer, so I would think he could at least try to defend himself.

Vita- It's true about Buckley. Gore Vidal taunted him on camera once about it and they came to blows, so to speak. Randall was siring kids in his late 70's. That's SO gay. Kidding. I don't think Henry was. He complained to Nicholas Roeg about his character in Man Who Fell to Earth being gay. That witty urbanity talk show regular- Ustinov was another of the type- comes off as gayish today, but back then the middle class hadn't discovered homoistics yet and so effete straights didn't have to cowboy up their personas.

Marie said...

Rourke looks so horrifying now. I cannot believe he is the same man from Angel Heart or Rumble Fish. I can see a guy hitting him.

Astra Worthington said...

I couldn’t blame a man for hitting Rourke. Not because he hit on him but because if I was him, I’d be terrified he was going to drag me down to the sewers and eat me alive, like another Pennywise. He is SCARY AS SHIT.

Eddie Murphy? (nominated for Dream Girls) He def was once A+ and has fallen to B

Vita said...

Astra--lol!

Thanks, Substance! Id love to see a battle of wits between Gore Vidal and William Buckley, had to be colorful! FWIW, I adore Peter Ustinov... awesome raconteur, and Topkapi will always be one of the reasons Im grateful for TCM.

Freckles said...

@Substance D I totally remember Bucks pedo skits. Gilda and Lorraine dressed like girl scouts and Buck with his camera

hunter said...

please - not Spacey - he likes them young and defenseless - he would never seek to victimize someone he didn't have power over

Deester said...

Somebody else. Adrian Brody?

Substance D said...

Vita- Try finding this movie. I think it was on Netflix. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzgfQvB2dvA
All the Buckley/Gore you can stand.

Boo said...

All the above mentioned who are/were A+ are all known for either being gay/bi/pan (minus Hanks, I don't count Cuba he wasn't A+). I don't think it would be a HUGE shock to a straight guy enough to punch his lights out.

How about Nic Cage? He was in LV drunk AF with Fiancée #4 trying to get a marriage license and yelling shit attracting attention. Maybe he bailed on her for a bit, saw a dude who looked like her, and went in for the grab. LOL

Stranger things with Nic. Such a sad state of affairs and the irony of him being wasted in Vegas. He's circling the drain.
