Bukowski - Born Into This

Aroview: Hailed as the "definitive" documentary on the cult novelist and poet Charles Bukowski, whose insights into skidrow Los Angeles in the 1950s and 60s were infused with unforgettable pathos and bawdy humour.

Boasting interviews with family, friends and co-workers, this builds a sturdy and authorative portrait, while celebrities like Bono, Sean Penn, Tom Waits and others also get to lay laurels in his memory. This DVD features home movie footage of 'Buke' in the early 1990s as well as poetry readings by Waits and Bono.
