Y'know. Barfly was about his life... this was about his writing. I still prefer Barfly, but this wasn't bad at all. In fact, I'd go so far to say that it was good. The score was good, though the actual songs in it didn't tickle me. Dillon did a suprisingly good job at portraying Buk's alter ego, Henry Chinaski. I was well stoked.
