“A pretty statue,” says best actor victor Mickey Rourke of “The Wrestler,” the winner of the day’s only hotly contested acting race, who wins over Sean Penn for “Milk.” Rourke won at the Golden Globes, but Penn pulled off a victory at the Screen Actors Guild Award. Adds Rourke today: “Thank you Darren Aronofsky who gave me a second chance after I’d f—ed up my career for 15 years. Such a pleasure to be here, and be out of the darkness. And thank you Marisa Tomei for being brave enough to take your clothes off all time. I liked looking at her. I’d like to dedicated this to the great Richard Harris.”
