Barfly is a 1987 film which is a semi-autobiography of poet Charles Bukowski during the time he spent drinking heavily in Los Angeles, California. The screenplay by Bukowski was commissioned by the French film director Barbet Schroeder it was published, with illustrations by the author, in 1984 when film production was still pending.[1] Barfly stars Mickey Rourke and Faye Dunaway, with direction by Schroeder, and was presented by Francis Ford Coppola. The movie also features a silent cameo appearance by Bukowski himself.
barfly is a terrific movie . rourke's best performance including the wrestler . charles bukowski is the shit . one of the greatest writers ever. factotum is a good movie too with matt dillon doin a more accurate portrayal of bukowski . some people live there whole lives without going crazy . what truely horrible liives they must lead .-CHARLES BUKOWSKI

You have to be one heck of an actor[ess] to read those lines. I looked at the script years ago. Incredible.

Loved this movie. rourke was cool. Faye D. was spot on, on the bottle. We never got a Barfly 2 , or Henry out of Detox. Please more on the educated man of the underworld
