"Its power springs from the director's shifting between fawning stories from long-time acquaintances and the scraggly, take-it-or-leave-it surliness of Bukowski himself." - Nick Schager

FANTASTIC documentary with great footage of one of my heroes. Love it. It covers all of his novels and goes into great length on each subject.

What a crazy old bastard. The film really engages a large group of people who all knew Bukowski in their own way thus creating a very nice objective view of who he was as a person. It was great to see Penn and Waits in their as well. If you're a fan, or just appreciate backgrounds of writers in general, then definitely check it out.

Extremely engaging documentary about one of my favorite writers ever. Bukowski had a tough shell but he had such a beautiful and vulnerable core. Everything Bukowski says seems to get better and better as the film progresses.
