FACTOTUMA film by Bent Hamer Jim Stark presents FACTOTUMA film by Bent Hamer Based on the novel by Charles Bukowski Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must live. Certains ne deviennent jamais fous. Leurs vies doivent être bien ennuyeuses. Charles Bukowski 1 Henry Chinaski works in factories and warehouses to support what he really wants to do: drink, bet on the horses, take up with women as rootless as he is and, above all, write stories that no one wants to publish. Based on the novel by Charles Bukowski, FACTOTUM is the story of a man living on the edge, of a writer who is willing to risk everything to make sure that his life is his poetry. Henry Chinaski accepte nʼimporte quel petit boulot minable pour faire ce quʼil aime vraiment : boire, parier sur les chevaux, passer du temps avec des femmes aussi paumées que lui et, par-dessus tout, écrire des histoires que personne ne veut publier. Tiré du roman de Charles Bukowski, FACTOTUM est lʼhistoire dʼun homme qui vit en marge, dʼun écrivain prêt à prendre tous les risques pour que sa vie devienne sa poésie. An intellectual is a man who says a simple thing in a difficult way. An artist is a man who says a difficult thing in a simple way. Un intellectuel est un homme qui dit des choses simples de façon compliquée. Un artiste est un homme qui dit des choses compliquées de façon simple. Charles Bukowski 2 Charles Bukowski was born in Andernach, Germany on August 16, 1920 and came with his family to the United States when he was three years old. Among his forty-five books of poetry and prose are the novels Post Office, Ham on Rye, Women, Hollywood and Pulp. His second novel, Factotum, published in 1975, follows Henry Chinaski (Bukowskiʼs alter ego) through a series of dead end jobs sandwiched between days and nights of drinking, women and his on going efforts to capture it all in his writing. Bukowski also wrote the original screenplay for the film BARFLY. Other films based on his stories include Crazy Love (aka Love is a Dog From Hell) and Tales of Ordinary Madness. His books have been translated and published in over 15 languages. Charles Bukowski died on March 9, 1994 in his adopted hometown of San Pedro, California. The latest volume of his writing to be published posthumously is the new book of poetry Slouching Toward Nirvana published by EccoPress. Charles Bukowski est né à Andernach, en Allemagne, le 16 août 1920. Sa famille sʼinstalle aux Etats-Unis alors quʼil a trois ans. Parmi ses 45 ouvrages de poésie et de prose, on retrouve les romans Le Postier, Souvenirs dʼun pas grand-chose, Women, Hollywood et Pulp. Son deuxième roman, Factotum, publié en 1975, suit les tribulations de Henry Chinaski (lʼalter ego de Bukowski) tout au long dʼune série de petits boulots minables, quʼil alterne avec des jours et des nuits de saoulerie, des femmes et ses efforts constants pour traduire son existence par lʼécriture. Bukowski a écrit le scénario original du film Barfly (Barbet Schroeder) . Dʼautres longs-métrages se sont inspirés de ses histoires: Crazy Love (Dominique Deruddère) (aka LʼAmour est un chien de lʼenfer) et Contes de la Folie Ordinaire (Marco Ferreri). Ses livres ont été traduits et publiés dans plus de 15 langues. Charles Bukowski est mort le 9 mars 1994 à San Pedro en Californie, la ville où il avait fini par sʼinstaller. Œuvre posthume, son dernier livre, qui vient de paraître, est un recueil de poésies Slouching Toward Nirvana ; il est publié par Ecco Press. If writing cost more than the price of paper and postage, I would have to quit that too. Si écrire coûtait plus cher que le prix du papier et des timbres, il faudrait que je laisse tomber ça aussi. Charles Bukowski 3 MATT DILLON (HANK)ʼs successful film career has spanned over two decades and has showcased his wide range of dramatic and comedic talents. He has proven himself to be one of the most diverse actors of his generation. From his breakthrough performance in THE OUTSIDERS he went on to appear in such great films as THE FLAMINGO KID, TO DIE FOR, and his hilarious turn as an obsessed private investigator in THEREʼS SOMETHING ABOUT MARY. Recently he wrote and directed his first feature, CITY OF GHOSTS, which was released by MGM/UA in April of 2003. In 1990 Dillon won an IFP Spirit Award for his gritty performance as a drug addict in Gus Van Santʼs DRUGSTORE COWBOY. He will next be seen in CRASH with Don Cheadle and Sandra Bullock and HERBIE: FULLY LOADED. Dillonʼs production company Banyan Tree has a first look deal with MGM. La brillante carrière cinématographique de MATT DILLON (HANK) a commencé il y a plus de 20 ans et a permis dʼapprécier sa large palette de talents, tant dans le drame que dans la comédie. Il est considéré comme lʼun des acteurs les plus originaux de sa génération. Depuis sa révélation dans OUTSIDERS, il est apparu dans dʼautres films notables comme LE KID DE LA PLAGE, PRETE A TOUT, ou encore dans le rôle hilarant et décalé du détective privé obsessionnel de MARY A TOUT PRIX. Il a récemment écrit et réalisé son premier long-métrage, CITY OF GHOSTS, produit et distribué par MGM/UA en avril 2003. En 1990, Dillon a remporté le IFP Spirit Award pour son interprétation, tendue et sans concession, du junky de DRUGSTORE COWBOY de Gus Van Sant. Ses prochains films sont CRASH avec Don Cheadle et Sandra Bullock, et HERBIE: FULLY LOADED. Banyan Tree, la société de production de Matt Dillon, a un accord de premier droit de regard avec MGM. Itʼs possible to love a human being if you donʼt know them too well. On peut aimer quelquʼun si on ne le connaît pas très bien.

  • WC Fields and Charles Bukowski As
    "TOO MANY OLIVES IN MY MARTINI": W.C. FIELDS AND CHARLES BUKOWSKI AS POSTMODERN CARNIVAL KINGS David Camak Pratt A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2008 Committee: Jeffrey Brown, Advisor Marilyn Motz © 2008 David Camak Pratt All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeffrey Brown, Advisor In the early history of America, constant, steady drinking brought the carnivalesque into official life such that the carnival and the official, as Bakhtin describes these terms, were intertwined. As hard alcohol, binges and drunkenness flourished in America, official life separated from carnival life. Temperance and prohibition movements that rose to significance in the early nineteenth century successfully marginalized the use of alcohol and also the alcoholic carnival. As the American alcoholic carnival diminished as a part of lived experience, it continued on in the mediated form that is its primary embodiment today. W.C. Fields and Charles Bukowski are two particularly successful purveyors of the mediated alcoholic carnival, Fields as an actor and screenwriter and Bukowski as a writer of poetry, stories, novels, and one screenplay. Bukowski’s mostly autobiographical texts often detail the steps his character, Henry Chinaski, takes to ensure he is able to drink and write, to the exclusion of most other considerations. A Fields character tries harder than Chinaski to succeed according to American middle-class standards, but first has to deal with the distaste he inspires as an alcoholic eccentric. Bukowski/Chinaski, by defining his own terms for success, stands largely outside of American hegemonic culture, criticizing the American Dream and American notions of alcoholism.

  • Bukowski and the American Dream
    DEGREE IN ENGLISH STUDIES 4th YEAR - HERO OF THE INGLORIOUS KIND: BUKOWSKI AND THE AMERICAN DREAM - Student: Mikel López Prieto Tutor: David Río Raigadas 2019-2020 U. S. Literature Contents 1. Introduction 4 2. Historical and Literary Framework 5 2.2. Charles Bukowski and the American Dream 7 2.3. Bukowski and Literary Protest in the 20th Century 8 3. Hero of the Inglorious Kind: Bukowski and the American Dream 9 3.1. Isolation 10 3.1.1. Rebellion 11 3.1.2. The Victimization of Henry Chinaski 15 3.1.3. The Victimization of the Working Class 17 3.2 Henry Chinaski's Embracement of Reality 20 3.2.1. Alcoholism 20 3.2.2. Suicidal Tendencies 22 4. Conclusion 24 Works Cited 26 2 Abstract Charles Bukowski is, perhaps, one of the most recognizable authors of the second half of the 20th century because of his direct, almost raw form of writing. Nevertheless, one of the major implications of this work has been neglected: his criticism of the philosophical and social construct of the American Dream, one of the first marks of identity of the United States of America, which is still present to this day. In this context, this essay is focused on the analysis of the Bukowskian depiction of the ideal in the novels Post Office (1971), and Factotum (1975) and on the autobiographical magnum opus of the author, Ham on Rye (1981). It is argued that the American Dream is portrayed as a source of alienation, victimization, and dehumanization of the character and the working class as a whole via the character of Henry Chinaski, Bukowski’s alter ego.

  • A NOVA VIDA DO SENHOR O'horten (O’HORTEN) É a 5ª Longa-Metragem Do Argumentista E Realizador Bent Hamer
    um filme de Bent Hamer A NOVA VIDA DO SENHOR O’HORTEN com Bård Owe DOSSIER DE IMPRENSA Alambique Rua S. Sebastião da Pedreira, 106, 3ºE 1050-209 Lisboa Tlf: 918190439 SINOPSE CURTA Depois de 40 anos ao serviço dos Caminhos de Ferro, o pacato e solitário maquinista Odd Horten chegou finalmente à reforma. Aos 67 anos, agora sem o trabalho a absorvê-lo, O’Horten vai confrontar-se com toda uma nova vida... uma vida a tempo inteiro. Chegou a altura de concretizar sonhos esquecidos e dar um novo rumo à vida. O consagrado realizador Bent Hamer assina este divertido e comovente filme. SINOPSE Odd Horten conduziu o mesmo comboio, na mesma linha durante tanto tempo que a sua vida se transformou numa rotina de rituais confortáveis. Mas chegou a altura do engenheiro de 67 anos se reformar, após 40 anos de trabalho zeloso. O pacato e solitário Senhor O’Horten está prestes a confrontar-se com dúvidas complexas e toda uma nova vida que tem pela frente. Sem o trabalho a absorvê-lo, conseguirá O’Horten habituar-se a uma vida a tempo inteiro? Terá coragem para concretizar sonhos esquecidos? Adivinha-se uma aventura estranha mas divertida e uma série de encontros com personagens memoráveis. Alambique O’HORTEN por Philip French (The Guardian) Dizem-nos os filmes que sob a superfície de um escandinavo do século XXI podemos encontrar um camponês do século XIX, e o mesmo se passa com o mais recente filme de Bent Hamer, depois de “Kitchen Stories” – a excêntrica comédia sobre o conformismo na Suécia e na sua nativa Noruega – e de “Factotum” – um hino ao expoente máximo do anti-conformismo americano que foi Charles Bukowski.
