Dullaghan traveled the world obtaining documents, photos and footage of Bukowski, and has worked closely with those who knew Bukowski best-particularly Bukowski's wife, Linda, with whom he has also helped organize the Bukowski archive in San Pedro, CA. While the film was undertaken out of an appreciation for Bukowski, Dullaghan went to great lengths to present the different sides of the author, offering the most revealing look yet of Bukowski and his work. The result is a film that peels off the hardened mask of the mythic Bukowski to reveal the insecure, loving and extremely human man-and the artist -underneath.

Yes, it is totally awesome. really one of the best lit. docs. ever unlike all the crappy Kerouacky films. B uk's own distinctive personality shines thru warts and all. a women-loving/hating writing machine, he, a poet with pure heart and a street smart tired delivery. sly skepticism.

The Laughing Heart and Roll The Dice
I have been hearing about Bukowsi for years but I have resisted reading him till now. Same with Kafka I guess. But I did manage to buy a bottle of vodka yesterday.
I feel like watching Sophie's Choice. That is what kind of mood I am in tonght.
