Get your Bukowski fix when the Rio Theatre screens There’s Gonna Be a God Damn Riot in Here, Nov. 21, 7:30 p.m. The film documents famed gutter poet, novelist and reprobate Charles Bukowski’s final live spoken word appearance outside of the U.S. in 1979 at the Viking Inn in downtown Vancouver. The film is presented by Dennis B. Del Torre, the organizer of the original event, with a Q&A to follow, plus a screening of the semi-autobiographical 1987 film Barfly, written by Bukowski and starring Mickey Rourke and Faye Dunaway.
