Walter Hill, Mickey Rourke, “St. Vincent”

Mickey Rourke (The Wrestler) is reuniting with director Walter Hill for the upcoming feature, “St. Vincent”. The two previously worked together on “Johnny Handsome” and it’s been seven years since Hill has made a feature film.

“St. Vincent” is about an assassin who is ordered to take out a “high level informant” and to do so he goes undercover as a priest. When the assassin takes his targets confession he has a “crisis of conscience”.

It’s great news of the reunion between Hill and Rourke. Hill is one of my favorite directors and I’m glad that he’s returning to the big screen. If you haven’t seen “Johnny Handsome” I suggest you do.
