A Promessa

Mickey Rourke was attempting a comeback from his self-imposed exile to professional boxing. He was also broke. Because of his wild reputation, studios were reluctant to cast him, and he was relegated to B-Grade action movies that went straight to video. Sean Penn was a big fan of Rourke, and he insisted on casting him in a small but pivotal scene as the grieving father of a murdered child. After this small part, Rourke began to get offered larger roles with bigger studios.
