Giveaway — Mickey Rooney: The Long & Short of It

February 16th, 2010 in Actors, Celebs, Classic, DVD, Fun/Entertainment, GiveAways -

Mickey Rooney-Long  Short of it-DVD BOX ARTCome along for a look back at a legend as you relish the career of one of Hollywood’s most iconic stars of vaudeville, film and television in Mickey Rooney: The Long & Short of It, available now from Infinity Entertainment Group. 

Short in stature but never confidence, the 5’ 3” Mickey Rooney was the #1 U.S. box office actor from 1939-41, starring in over 200 films opposite such leading ladies as Lana Turner, Anne Rutherford and Judy Garland (and marrying Ava Gardner).  His Academy, Golden Globe and Emmy award-winning career in stage, television and film spans nine decades—the lengthiest of any screen star.

Mickey Rooney: The Long & Short of it, a six-disc collector’s set, includes 14 classic films (1932-76); three Mickey McGuire film shorts (1929-43); television shows and appearances (1954-57); and movie trailers charting his career (1934-86).

What a collection to have in your library! If you’ve ever wanted to know Mickey Rooney, now is the time to get to know him.  I don’t think we’ll ever see such a career or personality in film and television again. 

Screenhead has 4 copies of Mickey Rooney: The Long & Short of It to give away. Please post your name and we will pick the winners Tuesday, March 9, 2010.

    Love Mickey Rooney and all his classic films. Kids of today are missing out on great acting performances because they choose not to watch alot of black and white movies. In my opinon, movies of the 30′s, 40′s and 50′s were some of the best ones ever made.
