How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A tenderly funny portrait of two broken people finding connection in the margins of society, where cheap whiskey and mutual wreckage become a kind of romance. Barfly celebrates the lives of the overlooked with affection rather than pity.
