the bukowski tapes (1 Viewer)

[d gray]

have i ever told you about the undeniable fact, that the Bukowski-Tapes are a huge bunch of pearls of wisdom?

i always thought a transcript of that whole thing would be great!

there you go baby.

ubuweb now has the tapes online... and since the dvd is out of print, here's an fyi: the link on ubu is downloadable.

This is too cool, really.

I reviewed Barfly when it came out. Wanted to see it again so put it in my Netflix queue. It's been in a permanent limbo of unknownness for two or three years. Where'd it go?

Most of the people who watched in the past have forgotten how good it is, got sober, "grew up," got married, got a better job, got a DUI and couldn't go to the bar every night, went to mandatory AA, and subsequently got Religion!

It went out of print, some time ago. So unless it's released again, it's unlikely Netflix will be able to offer it again on DVD.

It isn't available for streaming on Netflix or Amazon right now, but those streaming statuses are always changing.

I have it on VHS if you'd like to borrow it.

Or I can recite it to you. (I used to know it by heart once upon a time.)

USED TO??? :oo

You're very kind but, unfortunately, I have nothing to play a VHS tape. I could stare at it for a long time. That would probably be pretty entertaining in itself.

Was it in Hollywood or in a letter where he predicted it would play at night on TV from time to time and people would discover hidden meanings or new meanings in it?

I must state that I'm sorry:
when I answered to another post just a couple of minutes ago, and linked to my shop, I had no idea, that there'd be another thread tonight, to give me a second reasonable apropos to do so. So, please take my word for it: This is NOT 'advertising-night'!

but:
'Barfly' is officially available again.
But that's in Europe.

I think you can get used dvd's on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/The-Charles-Bukowski-Tapes/dp/B000GI3KK8/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1390686880&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=the charles bukowski tapes

or watch on Youtube.

Here is a transcript of the Bukowski Tapes with line-to-line-video linking to Youtube --> http://www.allreadable.com/vid/the-charles-bukowski-tapes-hq-with-eng.-subs-[1985]-cd1-1341104.html

That's slightly insane somehow, but on the other hand a great research-tool.

 

[roni]

that's fuckin awesome.
Thanks Jo!

I just ordered these. Some people earlier in the thread are mentioning $15. My copy cost me $40, so be happy with anything less these days.
