No relation to the much maligned Manure player and probably unknown to most of our younger fans but a hollywood legend nonetheless!

I read once that Walt Disney named Micky Mouse after him.

Quite a life he had by all accounts.

I thought you meant Mickey Rourke to start with!

Mickey Rooney is a legend though, 'Requiem for a Heavyweight' is a classic.

93 is a great age. RIP .

RIP Mickey
great actor and a funny man
his quote about his marriage certificate having the words"to whom it may concern" sticks in the mind.
