Why is this overlooked?
I admit I haven't read every thread in this forum, but from what I see it appears to be quite overlooked that Mickey Rourke completely botched his portrayal of Bukowski. If you've seen Born Into This, both Barbet Schroeder and Hank Bukowski talk about how Mickey Rourke did not want to rehearse his part despite the time constraints, and that he exaggerated many of Bukowski's qualities and generally got the whole thing wrong. Any comments?
