When she crossed over, she was just a ship. But when she came back... she was bullshit!

After a career that spanned 80+ years (starting when he was 7, with his last role in 2009), Mickey Rooney died April 6 at the age of 93.  For some reason even though he appeared in hundreds of films and TV shows, his performance as Puck in the 1935 film version of A Midsummer Night's Dream is the role I've always remembered him for:

If we shadows have offended,
Think but this and all is mended,
That you have but slumber'd here
While these visions did appear.
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding but a dream,
Gentles, do not reprehend:
If you pardon, we will mend.
And, as I am an honest Puck,
If we have unearned luck
Now to 'scape the serpent's tongue,
We will make amends ere long;
Else the Puck a liar call:
So, good night unto you all.
Give me your hands, if we be friends,
And Robin shall restore amends.

He was the top box office draw spanning two decades.

"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”
