  • Watch the movie for a view of a lot talent that flamed out early

    Not a bad movie, my memory of it was a little different from what I watched, but still enjoyable. Mickey plays the part so convincingly, that you think it’s real life. ( Sadly for Mickey it ended up becoming real life) . Watch him at the start of his career, “ The flame that burns twice as bright burn half as long”. He was truly a talented actor.

  • Classic Rourke!

    One of the early classic Mickey Rourke films. Screenplay written by the legendary writer Charles Bukowski. Rourke plays an alcohol fueled writer whose life revolves around dive bars,like Bukowski! There is humor and poignancy in this slice of life flick.

  • Great movie

    Mickey Rourke’s character is crazy, but has a great philosophical outlook on life. Fay Dunaway does an outstanding acting job in this movie!

  • Thin on Plot, weak on acting performances

    Movie is dreadful, considering that it has Faye Dunaway as the female lead I expected it to be better
