L.A. WRITERS - A PAIR
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23th - 7:30pm
Tickets: $10 general / $9 students or seniors
Be it Mickey Rourke's portrayal of poet/writer Charles Bukowsky, (who wrote the film's script), or John Turturro's Barton Fink, desperate to break into a hallucinogenic 1940's Hollywood, these two films explore and fantasize on the mythic figure of the L.A. writer at its darkest best.

Barfly (1987)
Directed by Barbet Schroeder
Official Trailer
Review by Robert Ebert - 1987

"Bukowski is the poet of Skid Row, the Los Angeles drifter who spent his life until age 50 in an endless round of saloons and women, all of them cheap, expensive, bad or good in various degrees. "Barfly," based on his original screenplay, is a grimy comedy about what it might be like to spend a couple of days in his skin - a couple of the better and funnier days, although they aren't exactly a lark."
