About this product

Product Information

Based on a semiautobiographical short story by poet and screenwriter Charles Bukowksi and directed by Barbet Schroeder, BARFLY offers insight into the world of the alcoholic, where all that matters is the next drink. Henry Chinaski (Mickey Rourke) is a talented writer of prolific prose; unfortunately, he's also a skid-row alcoholic with a violent temper. He picks fights nightly with Eddie (Frank Stallone), the bartender at the local watering hole the Golden Horn and lives in a seedy tenement, stealing food and trying to scrape together enough money for booze. Fellow alcoholic Willa Wilcox (Faye Dunaway) catches Henry's eye at the bar one afternoon, and although she has a reputation for being unstable, the two embark on a relationship with each other and the bottle. Their liaison is full of drama, humor, and irrational behavior; it is put to the test when Henry meets Tully (Alice Krige), a rich, privileged literary editor who wants to publish his stories and save him from himself. The film features exceptional performances from Rourke and Dunaway as they portray the highs and lows that are part and parcel of alcoholism--as well as love.

    Bar Fly

    A great cult classic that is very hard to find now-a-days. There are editions of this film on DVD worth 190.00. I found my copy on Ebay for 6 bucks and it was 8 bucks delivered. This is a film about a drunk who simply wants to be a drunk. He has no anger or fear of being disliked or failure. He is simply a drunk who likes to drink; and although it is a comical glimpse of Bukowski's true life, there is honest "Buk" beliefs laced all throughout the tale. Buy it or rent it. It is very interesting work of cinema that makes you laugh while making you fear the reality that the Buk lived. After all, maybe he wasn't too far off, maybe he simply "refused to acknowledge the rat race."

    Bukowski's - Barfly

    I like this movie/story mainly becuase it is a close reproduction of Bukowski's short stories. Are there people that really live like this? If you need another reason to quite drinking this may be for you. Mickey Rourke is very belivable down and out drunk. I bought this mainly becuase it is very hard to find. I saw it for the first time about 20 years ago and have had it in the back if my mind for years.

    Classic

    This is a movie that needs to be watched over and over. Sleazy and Fun. Buy it and you will be happy. Oh, it's out of print and rare. Don't be afraid to pay top dollar.
