RIP Mickey Rooney......

My favourite film of all time was Boys Town.....I first watched this with my Grandad as he loved black and white films......I was given a copy of the film as a present a while back, one of my most treasured possesions........

What a colourful life Mickey Rooney had and 80 years making films....also eight times married!

He is quoted as saying:
"Always get married early in the morning. That way, if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted a whole day."

RIP Mickey.
You've certainly had a lot of experience.
Enjoyed your acting in my earliest movies.
