Director Barbet Schroeder positions the grungy world of cult writer Charles Bukowski under a cinematic microscope, affording a titillating and startlingly well-acted glimpse of alcoholic lowlife. Mickey Rourke plays a slovenly, hard-drinking, fist-fighting scribe (read: Bukowski) who's taken with a haggard but attractive drunk (Faye Dunaway) he meets in a bar. Not a film for everyone, but peculiarly fascinating. Read the complete review for Barfly
