Bukowski in Film
Reading the FLM magazine last night I got all kinds of excited about – not one, but two movies about Charles Bukowski that are about to drop. The first will be the documentary, Bukowski: Born into This. From the review it looks like the movie will be a long overdue historical portrait with tons of old archival footage of the man the folks he hung out and worked with. This movie looks like it’s making the rounds in the independent film circuit and will hopefully be in a movie theater near me soon. The second full length is being written and directed by Bent Hamer (sweet name), who has the flick, Kitchen Stories, currently out in theaters. Hamer will be making a talking picture out of Bukowski’s book Factotum.
