In the news

I thought there was no way that America's First Face Transplant Performed in Cleveland could be toppled from it's place as the-best-headline-I-saw-on-google-news-today until I saw Mickey Rourke in 'The Wrestler' will stomp on your heart.

Actually reading these articles only leads to disappointment. Go with your first impression and just make something up. My version of the first story is loosely based on the middle half hour of Face/Off with elements of feel good urban dancestravaganzas like Honey and Save the Last Dance thrown in. Added twist, the hotheaded dancer with a new face is mentored by a grizzled Cleveland Indians veteran played by Tom Berenger.

The Mickey Rourke story quite simply involves Mickey Rourke actually stomping on someone's heart.
