Trama
Downtrodden writer Henry Chinaski spends his days drinking and listening to the radio at his regular bar in Los Angeles, often clashing with bartender Eddy who he sees as shallow. After being thrown out of the bar following a fight with Eddy, Henry meets Wanda, another barfly, at a new establishment. They move in together despite Wanda's admission that she'd leave him for someone offering better alcohol. Their relationship is tumultuous, with Wanda briefly sleeping with Eddy and leading to physical fights between them, requiring paramedic intervention twice. Henry sends one of his stories to a literary magazine and is surprised when the agent likes it enough to publish it, leading her to express romantic interest in him. After celebrating his newfound success at his usual bar, Henry's agent confronts Wanda there, leading to a catfight that Wanda wins. In the end, Henry buys everyone a round and toasts 'to my friends!' despite the chaos.
