Bukowski began writing in the 1940s. He was not a member of the "Dirty Realist" movement. He never heard of it and would have spat on it if he had.

Nominate it for deletion if you'd like, but refrain from defacing the article. Movingboxes (talk) 14:54, 1 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

I nominate this page for DELETION, and how does one go about deleting an article on "Wikipedia"? Bukowski99 (talk) 11:23, 7 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

I've corrected the article to make it clear that it's Hemmingson's book that makes the claim for Bukowski as a 'Dirty Realist'. PS, Bukowski99, Buk was writing right up through and after these other authors, and he knew Carver - perhaps didn't like him - but there's a claim to be made/contested here. --Chronotopian (talk) 08:08, 11 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Dirty realism in Film edit

I know that dirty realism has been used a lot in a few mini-series and films in the UK, there are even a few articles discussing it in the the context of film: <http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/culturenews/3652581/New-British-director-makes-her-mark-with-dirty-realism.html> and <http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/main.jhtml?xml=/arts/2006/05/22/bfcannes22.xml>. Does anyone object to a "Film" section, or even a mention o its use? Kuro ♪

I wouldn't object - sounds great. --Chronotopian (talk) 08:08, 11 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Unclear Paragraph edit

The paragraph beginning with, "After Buford's categorisation, the definition has expanded to include . . ." isn't clear. I think this is due to the interrupting clause. Needs rewording by someone who's familiar with this topic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MainePatriot (talkcontribs) 16:13, 25 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
