This man has a Blue Bird inside...you can tell.
And he only lets her see it
he didn't live to see the internet become a major thing. probably best.
I can see him firing off a few drunk tweets every now and again :)
Tweets? Bukowski???????? He would even not know what a tweet is
In 2024 y’all gonna be talking about the i2 the new intetnet
@@pablozote he was actually very forward-thinking. In his later life, he had a mac computer and took computer classes and was intrigued by the idea of the internet. The first thing he did when got a fax machine was send a poem to John Martin lol
@@The4prestonlmao that would be great
He found peace at the end, old fighter
He does seem at peace here compared to other videos.
You can tell he finally got what he wanted in this video.

Bukowski is my favourite poet. I sometimes write poetry too, and i find it interesting, because the way he describes writing is exactly how it is for me. I feel like my hands come alive on the keyboard, like spiders. I dont show my stuff to anyone and i dont really like reading it, but i sure do enjoy writing it.
Show it. Read it. Be happy you were given the gift to write and enjoy it. It comes from somewhere else.
Man, he lived so hard when he was younger, he actually looks better when he was older and not going completely overboard with booze, just staying lubricated.
Pickled.
His last reading he looked pretty rough. I dont know if this was after that
If you read latest biography og him, you'll find he lied a lot about his youth.
ryan olson. this is right after he had tuberculoses ı believe. 6 months of antiboticks, and, no alcohol. he was still righting.
@@vladavasiljev He never lied about his lifestyle. Just look at pictures of him when he’s young. That will tell you he aged fairly quickly due to alcoholism, being a drifter, and smoking. Bukowski lived a decadent lifestyle where he rebelled against yuppie culture. It was only until he struck lucky in his late 40s when a publisher consistently published his work. Certain stories he wrote about are probably embellished. But his hard living as a young man to middle aged is very true. Has it not occurred to you that certain people will make lies up/false allegations about artists in order to bring them down?
3:42 that "it's all true" and little chuckle made me happy.
"The great rebel sits in a big home"
"Do you think that I'm happy?"
haha, such great lines!
Buk books got me through a tough time in my life i lost my
job then my house became homeless could not get a job
anywhere .the country was in a recession his books and poetry were
Like a life raft for me I remember how I came a across his book
like it was yesterday it was a freezing winter day being homeless
you try to find somewhere you can go to keep warm with little or no expense I had being going to a little cafe run by two ladies
who were always really understanding of what I was going through they let me use there facilities in the morning before they would open to keep myself presentable as I was going
for interviews for jobs (when you go for jobs when you are homeless employers can smell your desperation) but things
we're not working out so one morning the ladies said to
me that I look cold all the time my jacket was not one you
would wear in the winter so they gave me a bag saying it
belongs to a friend of there's but he had left it behind in it
was a jacket and a few other bits and pieces later on I tried on the jacket and it had a copy of women in it's pocket the next week or so I read that book about 3 times and then I found his other books and his poetry bukowski has made me laugh made me cry he has made me think when times are hard in the grand scheme of things it ain't so bad 2 months after reading women
I got a job it was hard holding down a job being homeless trying
To save up to get a deposit for a flat but I always had bukowski
Right oh and the funny thing is I got a job in the post office
Dee✌️👍👀
Beautiful
true? jesus cool man
@@TheLiveMusicGroup every word 👍
I found myself in a somewhat similar situation many years ago. I'd walk every morning, trough darkness and snow, to a Public library where I'd read Buk's poems, for hours, one by one, taking my time, sipping hot coffee from my thermos flask.
Yes, now that I think about it, he did save my life, too.
Wow
Amazing to see him so old (apart from the final 1992 video footage reading on YT before he went to hospital until death) and still so lucid speaking good after probably thousand of madness and drunk evening. I suppose this was shot in the early 90s you can see the change since the Bukowski tapes in the 80s.
the ending is priceless had me like WTF?!?
My absolute favorite Bukowski video, period. Thank you for posting this treasure.
1:37 I love seeing BUK driving! Thank you!
He Has A Good Audio Book Voice.
im also a writer and also had a monster for a dad. i try to learn from charles attitude for life.
A priceless piece of Bukowski's wisdom
For those who wonder, this was broadcast on the Norwegian channel TV2 in said nation's languange. I cant believe after all these years I'm seemingly the first to say this even though I've been aware of this interview for about 3-4 years if not more.
The greatest writer of all times.
More likely the greatest man of all times.
After You.
Amor Proprio
Bukowski on Henry Miller... Well that was spot on.
He never misses a shot, it's fucking crazy
+zer o That was not spot on, Bukowski is Miller lite!
were you reading when your eyes went over the pages?
in my view the basic difference is in what Bukowski used to call 'guts'.
I'm yet to talk to someone who's realized this, but Bukowski has a very well defined and systematized sense of aesthetics in his writing. Where Bukowski presents you with the situation and forces you to experience what's happening to stir your guts, Miller drifts away into random sensory imagery. That being said I think Miller's images can be remarkable, but in a sense just as simple and accurate, they lack guts.
In essence, that's what he means here by 'flat', they're like a sense of wonder that can't really leave you light-headed.
SCREAMIN SKULL PRESS you again? Why are you so pressed to criticize someone's opinion on this issue? Fuck Henry Miller
I love how they have the theme from The Deer Hunter playing for the opening.
I thought I’d seen everything on Bukowski that was on CZcams, but this is a new one. This was really late in his life. He only lived until 94’, so this must’ve been early 90’s late 80’s.
I got so excited to find new Bukowski footage, thanks for posting.
he looks so happy and peacefull here, so strikingly different from that Hank that suffered and faught and drank all the time, like he's finally found true love
Ecaterina Osoian happy? peaceful? lol... the guy was a tortured soul.
Yeah. but here...
He looked old but yet young and full of life. Its thanks to his darling
Charles Bukowski filled a void in time where creative arts were boring and unrealistic. he never tried to escape real life but took a shine to it and made it funny! special blessings to Charles I hope the Gods are still good to you.even if they weren't I know you would still appreciate what you have. love always even I would not have gotten by without our friendship. xxx
Funny to see Bukowski's face going through those PowerPoint transitions
Amazing!!! I am a huge Buk's fan!!!!Ive learnt so much from this guy!! Cant believe I encountered this video!! thank you very much!! It shows Hank's inner beautiful side that is hardly to be found in any other footages!!
This guy is a muse. He becomes anything more than that its tragic. Variety gives us a reason to entertain self importance.
I bought a copy of "Tropic of Cancer" and intended to read it through from beginning to end but I never could get past the first chapter. I agree some writers are a hard effort. I kept the book for over 10 years and finally realized I was ritually returning to it like it was a holy book? I watched the Rip Torn movie version and was done attempting to read it.
I stayed almost 2 years on the 2 Tropic, they're bad shit. You read that books and it seems like you get scammed. Now, I'm gonna read John Fante's book "Wait Until Spring, Bandini". Fante is someone who deserve to get read, not Miller.
what humorist this guy !
Ohhh this is a new one! Unbelievable!
'It just flows out' he says. I need a fucking plumber, I say.
I LOVE U CB!! 🍻🍻🍸🍸🍷🍷
My favorite, although at times he occasionally makes me sick, he also will write something occasionally GENIUS, and absolutely beautiful!
Bukowski was able to look at the most disgusting things in life and find beauty.
And look at what are considered the most beautiful and find disgust. Brilliant man.
Whoa what a ride
Stumbled across this one.....had not seen this before....very good.
He was so nice towards women, giving only the best in them, always saying them were so beautiful, so distant, I so much wanted to be near them, their hair, their curves, her moves and swings... I so loved his respect toward women, and I always will
I feel blessed to have seen this
Thanks a lot! I guess this is a clip from the Danish Mette Fugl interview which I´ve been looking for for years.
beautiful this document ,, the final part with Linda Lee Beighle in particular. Pure human poetry, the one he has always sought. [bellissimo questo documento,, la parte finale con Linda Lee Beighle in particolare. Pura poesia umana, quella che lui ha sempre cercato.
I love that Bukowski looks just like the troll guy from Labyrinth.
Holy moley, you're right, he does!!!
Iris Ilagan I know! Almost exactly!
I was thinking more like Billy Crystal in 'The Princess Bride'.
i've never seen this footage before, thanks for sharing
love him
Scandinavian!
... a lucky Man!"
#CharlesBukowski
P.d.
Congratulations!
He's so right about Henry Miller.
beautiful person
I love his laugh
'92 baby here. Bukowski died in '94. If this alone does not speak influence nothing does.
Such a sense of humor from realism
I'm glad that I seen this. "Hank," doesn't appear to be that angry, especially towards Linda.
If that's the Blues Brothers kicking it at the one-minute mark, I love him.
I believe this is a few years before his death and he had cut way back on his drinking. He does seem more content and at peace here, clearer than when he was younger.
I wish i could have drank with him sometime or smoke a joint (idk if he did smoke weed). I would feel less on the edge knowing there are people like him. That it is possible to be so sad and so happy at the same time
charles bukowski has a picture of louis-ferdinand céline, his favorite writer. look at ~0:39
Heineken?! Fuck that shit! PABST! BLUE! RIBBON!
Being a raw truth speaking bag of bones is what God created us in desperation for.
God is a Bukowski fan, and not a fan of Presidents or actors or parents or teachers or the cringing Triffids.
Swagger in your knowledge! Read the books, the funny books, the sex energy.
But enjoy life in solitude, not in public.
Gordon M. U sound like a Marxist Socialist
@@kikeheebchinkjigaboo6631 How can a Marxist be so obsessed with the opium of the people? I think you're wrong.
@@kikeheebchinkjigaboo6631 u don' know shit
Fante! Now there's a writer that influenced Buk. Buk would go onto help get the road to Los Angeles published after fante had passed. Thanks buk and RIP.
fante yes....but also the greatest writer of all time influenced buk...celline...
7:58
hank is soft as butter
انت رائع بوكوفسكي
I feel exactly the same about Henry Miller as Hank. I had a hard time reading him too. He gets way too literary with what should be simple setups and scenes and somewhat randomly too because other times he will just simply describe something. It's maddening.
What YEAR???!!!! Aargh! Please include in description!
lemurian chick
1993.
doesn't look like 93, both he hand linda look younger than in his last two years (see other clips) maybe i'm wrong
He’s happy we get visuals while typing I mean texting
4:18. Cheers.
should he be driving...?
Stephen Noad
He never hits DUI or pulled over. Hank was a great roller.
Well should he be writing...hell yes!
S Nomad yes “DAD” he should
😂 those days.... my dad, a POLICEMAN, drove drunk with little 3year old me in the back 😂
There's something both tragic and beautiful about 4:18 onward
What recording is taj majals version of "she caught the Katy" from as presented here?
He actually talks normal here, without the long hang on the end of every word.
His life is as old as time.
He is heavy, funny and my neighbor
Freely lithe and astutely sordid, sometimes steaming
Make the music louder so we can't hear hin
I do
Love this guy
what is the music at the end?
🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Why that beer at his age 😔that man has an incredible value but he s selling himself for the pain..poor bukowski, and I love you Charles, forever ♥️🌈🌳⛰️💫💋💖✨
what year was this?
I feel so bad for him that he has a father like that
Therapeutic.
what's the music?
In the beginning it’s the score from the deer Hunter
7:58 what you came here for. Lol
Интимные места. Дориан Грей
......
Во фраке, с блестящею тростью, мошной,
меж улиц, пролазов, приютов, тюков,
несусь за греховно-горячей волной
к причалу, где лечит бабьё моряков.
Минуя ухабы, скамеек плоты,
кабачные музыки, драки и брань,
блюющие, певчие, ржущие рты,
забывшие всю перейдённую грань.
Не счастья ищу, а дешёвую дверь,
где похоть и мерзости так откровенны,
творожную дырку, подгнившую щель,
в походке каких варикозные вены.
Я рыскаю подлых, наколотых дам,
избитых, одетых в вонючие тряпки,
в которых абсент, кокаин и "Агдам",
какие лохматы, в платке, а не в шляпке.
... И вот отыскал одну змей-поводырь!
В безумии сдёрнув халат, панталоны,
внедряюсь в неё, как в занозную дырь,
в широко-бугристо-подсохшее лоно,
как в сучий пушок от пупка до спины,
меж ног исцарапанных, битых вожжою...
Не чувствую зла, отвращенья, вины.
Хоть я и красив, но поганен душою...
somehow it's weird seeing his face all skinny. even legends are not precluded from aging
the stupid commercial said, was bragging about reshaping nature. Thank you Bukowski, if through the awful grace of god you really are listening, regardless.
Well, Henry certainly didn’t get all these women with his good looks.
No one talk about 4:28
DEWDROPINN
DEPRESSED?
DEWDROPINN
The painted bird
No one knows the Truth except I. I am the daughter of my wonderful Special Dad who is in heaven and greatly missed. lies have been distorted. Ask me anything and I will give u the truth. however its none of your damn business. Its my business and only mine. this is not a comment for Charles I think he is a great guy. This is just me saying that we all have stories to tell. some worse than others. That's Life
I agree, it is none of my damn business, so take it somewhere else.
Can someone explain this 'always be available, it's very important to a woman' comment? It seems to go against common sense, someone having a lot going on with ambition, isn't always available, but should be more sought after?
Momo mimi good point, i think maybe what he meant was available on a level of putting in effort and interest in some form of a relationship...i could be wrong but playing hard to get doesnt work for all women maybe
that is what he told the postman who asked him, "how do you do it, you are not an attractive man, you are not rich, how do you get all those women, what's your secret?" and he answered, "availability"
@@barflytom3273 Is that in one of his books?
yes, one of his poems, but ı can not tell you which one.
Funny, as drunk as he was, he really knew the way into a woman's heart. It is all about if guys reply to us within very reasonable time. Also, it amuses me but also saddens me that a lot of people say they don't like Charles. They probably just don't understand alcoholics. I am one. And the insane accusations of Charles being a misogynist. I only see him as a Dom (which actually has NOTHING to do with gender.) Also he was from a very specific generation that used to be called "The Greatest Generation" he was a WWII vet as least ny proxy and naturally blumt as were most all men back them
He actually avoided the draft and as a consequence WW2.
A vet? Bukowski? Wasn't he dismissed die to phycological examination?
Well he's a German descendant they really can hold their drink there Oktoberfest etc. I expected he would like Lawrence Welk and wrestling like my German grandfather but he's a drunken European intellectual like my father instead everyone has their own causes to like or dislike him I suppose.
Buk and miller both bow before celine.
So do I and so should you.
And...
Sorry kids, and I am a Bukowski fan, but Bukowski loved Henry Miller, and was intimidated by him - Kitasenju2 comment was correct - this interview was resentment by Buk and not at all what he thought about Miller in private.. Any biography on Buk, and I have read a few, will support this. And by the way - Henry Miller is one of the greatest writers of the 20th century. Without him, there would be no Bukowski. He was writing about the same things Buk was, with much more style and courage, 30 years before him, when writing about these things was not done, and in some places, actually illegal. And when he did go further than the street writing, that was fantastic! He stretched his wings and refused do just repeat and repeat, over and over, his last book was nothing at all like his first book, that is talent and growth! Tropic of Cancer is widely considered one of the greatest books of the 20th century...Buk was great, but never accomplished what Miller did, and anyone that knows anything about literature will agree with that....
+keith mahone so what, he is an artist not a philosopher or a moralist , the thing that botther me about miller is sometimes he is pushing or trying hard to explain which spoil sometimes his creative abbilities , belive me the enemy of art is philosophy ! dont explain and dont try , that's what i call it art ! miller is great when he is not aware but when he goes further likes said bukowski here i just hide my eyes !
Art is not a sackrace..Jim Harrison.
@@azzouzhassan8721 just how the hell do you come to the conclusion that philosophy is the enemy of art? Both practices contemplate and explore the meaning of interpretation, representation and deal with expression. Either you have misunderstood one of these concepts or you just don't realize the intertwinement between the two and how they complement each other.
Miller, who I really like at times, really owes everything to Celine. He's the true ground breaker in this lineage.
@@johns8596 Sorry, Celine who?
i agree with him on Henry Miller. A bore. He sucks. I cant get into his books either. There is nothing brilliant about Miller at all. I was bummed out when i tried to read Tropic of Cancer. Its garbage and I never tried to read much more than that. Bukowski was right on with that statement and Im glad Im not the only person who feels that way. Buke is genius. Amazing.
+NoRosesForMe Only in today's short attention span world would Henry Miller be considered a bore - Bukowski writes at a grade 8 level and is praised for simplicity, yet everything he ever wrote about Miller wrote before him - with more grace, ability and depth that Bukowski could ever dream of...Bukowski is a poor man's Henry Miller, anybody that knows anything about literature, knows that -
+SCREAMIN SKULL PRESS Thems fight'in words.... I hope he gets back to you.
I remember reading Henry Miller's books long ago when I was a teenager and liking them. I forget a lot of the details. I have been reading some of Bukowski's lately and finding him so good. I would have to read Henry Miller again to have an opinion on who I like better.
SCREAMIN SKULL PRESS No, Henry Miller is the rich man's Bukowski. And that's not a good fucking thing.
Miller had a nice bathroom.

WHY PREMIUM!?
Woman have hundreds of thirsty men available in an instant these days.
Too much competition for a regular drunkard....unless he's touched with genius.
A lot of women and a lot of drinking.
Master! jejej
Guys like Bukowski, HST, the Beats are closer to drinking buddies than great authors. Don't waste your youth drinking kids.
Once you read Buk, you dont need Henry Miller.
i need them both. actually we wouldn't have Bukowski without Miller.
@@barflytom3273 I havent heard of H M's greatness since a long while. I wonder why I never liked his thing. Bukowski gave me hope and laughter, and Miller left Marilyn Monroe crying in her bed. Meh.
