Thanks, hank solo. The interview was an easy enough read.

I got that he cared about the film, and tried to reflect Bukowski's vision
without just putting the story on film.

Thanks, hank solo! Nice little interview.
Bent Hamer and Jim Stark were present when Factotum was shown at the Copenhagen Film Festival in 2005. I was there too. They held a short speech before the movie started, Saying that it was slow, without any plot but humourous and afterwoods they answered questions from the audience.

and afterwoods they answered questions from the audience.

can you remember any of those questions?

 

[Bukfan]

No, not really. I remember it was only about 4-5 questions and they were rather ordinary. Maybe that's why I don't remember them. I do remember one of them had to do with filming locations and Hamer named the city in which it was filmed etc. I have even forgot the name of the city...:(

 

[Father Luke]

Okay

I'm thinking of questions I would have asked.
