Starting out as a boxer, Mickey Rourke moved into acting and became an international star (9 1/2 Weeks, Angel Heart). He gave it all up returning to the ring in 1991, where he remained undefeated. When he later attempted a screen comeback, his troubled reputation made it nearly impossible, until his Oscar-nominated film performance in The Wrestler. Written with passion, insight and expertise, Mickey Rourke: Wrestling with Demons is a compelling comeback story.
