ROURKE STILL RAW OVER THE WRESTLER

MICKEY ROURKE refuses to watch the non-action scenes in THE WRESTLER - because they stir too much emotion in him.
The 55 year old plays heavyweight retired grappler Randy 'The Ram' Robinson in the film, a role that earned him a Golden Globe award earlier this year (09).
But one heart-wrenching scene with co-star Evan Rachel Wood, which sees Rourke's tough-guy character admit to his shortcomings, affected the star so much, he can't bring himself to watch it.
Rourke says, "I refuse to watch that particular clip. It's just too personal, the process you have to go through to get there. I've only watched the action scenes."
