Review of Barfly (1987) by Karl H — 30 Apr 2009
Well acted, original odd-ball of a movie, great to see Mickey play an artistic bum, he's at his pre-plastic surgery best. Shot the same year as Angel Heart. .. . how did this man fall off the planet until the Wrestler..? Nice to see Faye Dunaway carry off her role so well too..
One of the best lines from Mickeys character:
"Everybody's gotta DOO something, I get sick thinking of all the things I don't wanna do, all the places I don't wanna see!... Like... India.".
