Episode 120 - Barfly (1987)



Cannon is back! Summer might not be over, but we've decided to go back to the grind with more flicks we missed in the first seven seasons. Today, it's Barfly from 1987, a movie that seems incapable of having a proper physical release in the region it was made.

From Charles Bukowski comes a small slice in the life of a poet going nowhere in the city of broken dreams. We follow Mickey Rourke in one of his most interesting performances as he meets Faye Dunaway and things seem to change for him. Or do they?

Barfly was one of Cannon's most critically acclaimed hits at the time it released, but does it hold up? Check out today's return episode to see!

Randy's Score: 4/5
