Sin City (2005)
Black-white with red accents. Sin City is Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's 2005 American neo-noir adapting three Frank Miller graphic novels from his Sin City series.
Actor: Mickey Rourke
Mickey Rourke was among the most promising actors of the 1980s, in Diner, Rumble Fish, Angel Heart and Barfly, before leaving film to box professionally in the early 1990s.
The boxing caused facial damage that reconstructive surgery worsened, and the resulting appearance ended the leading-man career.
The Wrestler used all of it. Playing a broken performer who cannot stop, Rourke earned a Best Actor nomination in a film that is inseparable from his own history.
Sin City and Iron Man 2 followed, and he has been open that the intervening years were his own doing.
