Zombie Bukowski!!! :D

(Btw, people do celebrate dates of death, that is nothing odd or morbid. In France, one celebrated Camus' 50th death anniversary in January. I am myself going to do something special for Ian Curtis' 30th death anniversary on May 18th. Even on Buk.net, people do this :https://bukowskiforum.com/showthread.php?t=138 ;) )

I have some morbid and odd tastes but don't worry Bruder, I won't hang myself after watching Stroszek on May 18th.



I find him frightening because when I see him here, I can't help thinking to a golem in a tv cartoon which terrified me as a child.

Indeed, Roni! My sentence was clumsy; I meant that death anniversaries are an occasion to celebrate a man/woman and his/her work (and not to rejoice at his/her past death!), as it was done in France with Camus in January through exhibitions, readings, lectures and the release of a bunch of books on him.

There is a difference
between "celebrating" ones day of death
and commemorating him on that occasion.

I just attended a celebration of life this afternoon. An old friend and boss died of leukemia on Monday they got together at a little bar to celebrate his life. He would have liked that.

Thanks Gerard
It is there but also where I said on "buk tapes" pg and on "barfly" pg
I just posted some other good Buk photos...Buk on the Barfly set...that Barbet found recently in his archives. Check them out:

BTW, I asked Barbet details about that famous photo of them laughing. Yes, it was staged specifically to mimic that Variety ad in the background of Menahem and Golan Globus of Cannon. Barbet and Buk are posing just like them in the ad in the same positions. It was taken by a photographer named Sophie Calle.

All,
FYI The "Black and Decker" incident from HOLLYWOOD is online with the photo; Barbet's commented:

According to Schroeder:
"It is 80% true but:
1) It was never my intention to cut more than the end of the left little finger. I just did not have the time to go to a lawyer, that is why I had to chose the firm Black & Decker.
2) My plan was to do eventually do a press conference holding the finger and then go to the hospital to try to have it sewn up again."
