Barfly (1987)
Directed by Barbet Schroeder
“Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead.”
Comedy, Drama, Romance · 1h 40m
Downtrodden writer Henry and distressed goddess Wanda aren't exactly husband and wife: they're wedded to their bar stools. But, they like each other's company—and Barfly captures their giddy, gin-soaked attempts to make a go of life on the skids.
