Film

Factotum

when:Opens Fri 8.18
where:IFC Center (323 6th Ave, 212.924.7771)
price:$10.75
details: IFC Center

Maybe it's those dark eyes brooding beneath his Cro-Magnon brow, but Matt Dillon just can't pull off a straight-man role to save his life (Oscar nomination be hanged). It's only as a derelict like Drugstore Cowboy 's superstitious addict or, now, as the boozehound writer Henry Chinaski — Charles Bukowski's alter ego — that the actor's hammy beleaguerment truly snaps into focus. Fortunately, when Dillon is on, he's really on, for — like all Bukowski adaptations — Factotum never evolves beyond a series of whiskey-drenched character studies. Fortunately too, he and the always-game Lili Taylor and Marisa Tomei sink their fangs into such a strong script that the film catapults right over its limitations.
