Mickey's Story

I'm in a very serious situation right now. I got injured in Libya in Feb. 2014. Seen well over 15 specialist and finally found Dr. Reitman, the hip specialist. It's now Summer, 2015. Had the full hip replacement and far less pain but I'm still having problems as a result of surgery. I've only survived by help given by many of you at paypal me MickeyGrant Also, you can view some of my older films on Youtube with my name being Mickeyfilm. One of my films played several weeks in Dallas at all the General Cinema Theaters and it is called CHINA RUN(. HBO AND BBC bought it after it's theatrical run. The movie I'm most famous far is one that I made in Vietnam between 1986 and 1990. The BBC created a series of what they said were the top films about the Vietnam war and besides Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, they included my film, THE CU CHI TUNNELS which I made totally in Vietnamese, not easy! NPR and others did stories about me making the film... NPR actually sent reporters to old Saigon to interview me. It's on Youtube with my name as Mickeyfilm. Here's some history: Spent 2011-2014 very often in Libya I priviously had made another film in Libya which I finished and it premiered at the Angelika Theater in Dallas and then played several weeks at the Inward Theater and then went to cable and also broadcast on several broadcasters across Europe and it's called INJECTION, again it's on Youtube. Rarely do I play the role on camera as an investigative journalist, but I did so in this one. It played at many theaters and was at the Angelica and Inwood in Dallas. INJECTION, which blamed Gaddafi for this HIV outbreak at a children's hospital in Libya, endured me with the early rebels in Libya. When the was started, I was on a lot of radio and TV shows as a Libya expert and one day I mentioned that I'd like to bring medical supplies to the war torn Libya (this was in the 2nd week of the revolution. I quickly ...Expand for more
got them and a humanitarian ticket to Cairo and then a wild taxi ride across the desert from Cairo to Benghazi. I brought medical supplies there and then shot a new documentary I'm currently editing, BURNING GREEN, here's the trailer (again it's on my YouTube channel which is Mickeyfilm. Graduated from SMU in '71. Later got a Masters in Film at UNT in 1986 focused on film criticism. . Co-creator along with Bill Mercer of the wrestling show with the Von Erich's that went national (83 stations and we were 2nd to Soul Train in syndication!) in early 1980's. Was Ron Chapman's sidekick for many years. Made another film in Libya 7 years ago called INJECTION which dealt with a large outbreak at a children's hospital. In the end, I blamed Qaddafi. HBO often buys my films. You can see my latest film on YouTube which after sales I often put my films out there for free (search Gentleman's Choice Mickey Grant Hannibal) which explores the death of Gentleman Chris Adams(the British wrestler who often wrestled the Von Eric's) who was murdered several years ago. It took 5 years to make and I think it's my best. The only problem is that at first it might appear to be a wrestling film but instead it's a dramatic story of murder, drugs and rock and roll. Oh, you can view my film INJECTION (played at the Inwood Theater) on Google Video or by visiting creativehat dot com and clicking the INJECTION box. I can also be reached at Mickeyfilm at live dot com Here's a link to my film INJECTION can easily be viewed by searching "Injection" Mickey Grant My most well known film is China Run: and it can easily be viewed by searching "China Run" Mickey Grant My best film was THE CU CHI TUNNELS and can be found by searching "The Cu Chi Tunnels" Mickey Grant I also converted to Islam about 3 years ago. I'd been working with Muslims for many years in Africa and the mid-east and was constantly impressed by their good character.
