I heard he's set to make a semi-autobiographical film which has him leaving Hollywood and running a dairy processing plant. It's tentatively titled...get ready for it....Mickey Rooney and Cheese...
Actually, I've already admired Mickey on the screen, and especially liked him in "The Black Stallion".
Friday evening Mickey celebrated his 85th birthday at the Regent Theatre in Arlington, Mass for he & his wife's weekend engagement of ''Let's Put on a Show,". The Boston Globe reported Mickey stating "The best things that ever happened to me are winning a bronze star and Jan," .
"He's a total psychotic. He's very adorable, but there isn't enough Ritalin in the world for him." -- Nathan Lane on Mickey Rooney
