    the pothead thread

    I smoked weed for 8 years straight and i mean heavily smoked.I probably smoked about forty cones a day.Then one day out of the blue,my brain had had enough and i flipped out.Massive paranoia attacks.But not about other people,the paranoia was about my brain ,heart and lungs.It felt like there...

    Was Bukowski bisexual?

    Perhaps he was just curious.

    Women

    That is an awesome pic.The woman in it isn't that attractive(IMO) but just the whole concept of the shot is great.

    Bukowski and Barfly (The Movie)

    Barfly is actually my all time fav movie...and Rourke is actually my fav actor..so i love the fact that Buk wrote a screenplay for a movie he stared in..

    Will Bukowski ever be properly translated to film?

    I actually prefer Barfly to factotom. I thought Rourke and Dunnaway did a great job in the film.Factotum seemed rushed and Matt Dillon isn't a good actor.He didn't look the part and i just found myself very disappointed in the film since i had waited so long to view it. I know most people on...

    When did you discover Bukowski?

    I was a big fan of Mickey Rourke and loved watching his older movies.Barfly was my fav so i found out that it was based on a book by Buk and,boom...became a fan.

    Do you think C.B is a bit overrated?

    I don't think he's overrated.He had a select fan base.He "made it" but was never commercial per se. A lot of people i speak to find his writings awful and rough.So I've found that people actually don't get his writings the way they are meant to be taken in....

    The campaign to save Bukowski's De Longpre bungalow

    A Nazi sympathizer?? I don't think so.The history probably interested him,but to say he is an actual sympathizer is going a bit too far. Besides,he would have looked like he was Jewish to the Nazi's hahaha

    A look at class in the movie Barfly

    This is actually one of my all time favorite movies.I think Rourke did a fantastic job as Henry.I found Factotum to be a great letdown.

    Best Bukowski Novel

    The first novel i ever read from Buk was Factotum.I don't think it's his best work,but it remains my favorite.
