Bent Hamer

Factotum

Interviewed by Adrian Hennigan

“When you do a foreign film, people are very suspicious about it â€

Norwegian director Bent Hamer made his name internationally with the quirky 2003 charmer Kitchen Stories. He's ventured far from the kitchen for his follow-up movie, Factotum, an adaptation of several Charles Bukowski stories set amid the downbeat barflies of America. The movie sees Matt Dillon play Bukowski's alter-ego, Hank Chinaski, and also stars Lili Taylor and Marisa Tomei.
