Factotum

I watched Factotum last night. I know very writerly of me. My first impression is that Matt Dylan plays Henry Chinasky much better than Mickey Rorque did. My second impression is that I know it's been a while since I read Factotum but it seems to me Hollywood worked their magic and changed and added a few scences to make it seem more entertaining. Which has to be expected. It's Hollywood right? The movie was good, entertaining. I think Matt Dylan did a good job of capturing the "I don't give a fuck" attitude of Bukowski and the adventures in the book translated well on the screen.
