- Charles Bukowski on Drinking, Love & Life in the Gutter
Henry Charles Bukowski (/buːˈkaʊski/ boo-KOW-skee; born Heinrich Karl Bukowski, German: [ˈhaɪnʁɪç ˈkaʁl buˈkɔfski]; August 16, 1920 - March 9, 1994) was a German-American poet, novelist, and short story writer.
His writing was influenced by the social, cultural, and economic ambience of his home city of Los Angeles.[4] His work addresses the ordinary lives of poor Americans, the act of writing, alcohol, relationships with women, and the drudgery of work. Bukowski wrote thousands of poems, hundreds of short stories and six novels, eventually publishing over 60 books. The FBI kept a file on him as a result of his column Notes of a Dirty Old Man in the LA underground newspaper Open City.[5][6]

"Almost all people are dumb." - Charles Bukowski
"They eat even when they aren't hungry."
big fan of Charles Bukowski. He is an insane genius.
I wish we had MORE of him speaking
The more I think of humanity the less I wanna think of them.
Painfully true
Beautiful stuff Baby, til the wheels come off....🍻
Look who's talking he drinks when he's not thirsty and speaks when nobody's talking to him
Fuck you, if you are better show us
I have felt like the fly for most of my life. Hence my identifying with his views on this existence.
He made a comment about how glorious a Hot Beer 💩 was .
Things to do, things to do... So😮
Poets, artists , why do they have to be so miserable?
It´s an interesting question, but almost all great lessons come from hard life experiences. If you choose to learn something that is really hard it comes with a little bit of suffering to get there.
@@DeiNostri 'a little bit'.....huuuuhhhh
They see the world for what it is and wish for the way it should be, yet know it never can be.
@@Turtlpwr that's about the size of it. a really stupid way to go about things. but satisfying.
We know truth. You're shitting yourself and living a lie in denial if you haven't wanted to kill yourself at least once..or twice
Did he inspire the character Debbie Downer?
Schopenhauer
"People go to restaurant to order food, they don't even want to eat food, they're coming because it's time to eat. They are not even hungry." This is so deep.
Exactly.
You’ve figured out the entire deal.
🙏
kind of like Feynman taking about the light-dark edge around the globe and everyone along this edge brushing their teeth like mad
thats the least deep thing he said. you'd be impressed by anything
So true
@@aarondavid5866wrong, bro. It nailed human nature and our dumb economics.
That's the problem. We don't involve ourselves in anything. It's just denial. We only like and see what we want, not what's actually going on...SBN RESONATE
"The more I think of humanity, the less I want to think of it."
Love is a dog from hell...
It's the disconnect that provides a connection .🍻
Exactly
I was 20 years old when I met him young and foolish, I was told that he's a famous person and there was an article in one of the newspapers, he seems to be friendly enough down to earth and I was talking to him as if I'm talking to a friend in a bar so I asked him can I have one of your books, he brought a book next day and he signed it for me, before that point I had no idea who he was, he was comfortable talking to me and he opened up saying he was not happy with the amount of money he received for the movie he was in, I used to shadow box with him and he will play along no problem as if I know him all my life, I am a Greek Orthodox Christian Palestinian and he is a Jew and I was fresh off the boat in those days so there was little friction right there, one thing about this Jew he was a good Tipper 100 bucks at a time and that was in the 80s, that was the time in which for 5 or $6 you can get a 2 patty Quarter Pounder Burger with fries and a large Coke.
The irony of the guy who's doing the interview is the exact guy Bukowski is talking about. "You're really fucked up."
The 2 burps starting at 0:27 are some funny shit
This is taken from different documentaries that have been one youtube for years, some conversations are strangely edited, the context gets lost. I guess its a contemporary sign that media becomes shorter and flashes points without the build up. I would recommend watching these three videos in full, instead of this distilled version..
-The charles bukowski tapes ( barbet schroeder did this film to finance their collaborative film "Barfly" )
- Born Into This" by John Dullaghan
- The belgian tv interviews in three parts from the early eighties.
All are here on youtube for free.
There is also a great feature film by the norwegian director Bent Hammer called FACTOTUM, after one of his books. Matt Dillon plays Buck, and does a really good job.
Thank you
Factotum film SUCKED
@@drainel9707 What a wordsmith 😂 do you find getting your opinion across is easier WITH ALL CAPS?
@@contagonist8478 no but it was the only way i could get across the fact that i am yelling when i say that specific word
Thank you
RIP 🐐
bukowski, el grande cabron mas grande que he conocido, despues de mi padre...y eso, es mucho
If you spoke this kind of truth today, you would be hated, and called a disgrace. Yet this truth he talks about, it's just as real today, as it was back then. Maybe more so.📚
Where’s that clip from when “Tom Traubert’s Blues” kicks in?
That’s his house in San Pedro, the clips when he’s in the blue shirt on the balcony are also from there, his wife still lives there, she hasn’t touched a single thing within his writing room since he died.

The babbling of a madman
the man's sold millions of books and been translated into dozens of languages ... mad? we should be so lucky.
Key word being 'man'. These days I think the correct term is 'madperson'.
Genius
BRILLIANT IS THE WORD
No, the babbling of a sane man; you wouldn't understand.
