Johnny Handsome

We continue Patreon August, this year focusing on Mickey Rourke, with another film where Mickey Rourke makes some big choices and wears a ton of prosthetics in Johnny Handsome. Noise Junkies' Father Malone joins the show to discuss Rourke's performance, Walter Hill's direction, and that abysmal third act.Starring Mickey Rourke as the titular character, he starts out as a criminal who is born with a physical deformity only to be double-crossed on a job by Lance Henriksen and Ellen Barkin only to be given a new face and life. He then squanders that new life on a stereotypical revenge story that falls apart in the third act.
