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.

Barton Fink (1991)
Directed by Joel Coen
Official Trailer
Review by Robert Ebert - 1991

"Like all of the Coen productions, "Barton Fink" has a deliberate visual style. The Hollywood of the late 1930s and early 1940s is seen here as a world of Art Deco and deep shadows, long hotel corridors and bottomless swimming pools. And there is a horror lurking underneath the affluent surface. Goodman, as the ordinary man in the next room, is revealed to have inhuman secrets, and the movie leads up to an apocalyptic vision of blood, flames and ruin, with Barton Fink unable to influence events with either his art or his strength."
