Hubert Selby Jr.: Voice of the Downtrodden
"Hubert Selby was the underdog and the voice for the . . . downtrodden, and was marginalized because he spoke up for the little guy," says actor, musician, and radio host Henry Rollins. "But you see the great humanity and the warmth and richness that he brought to things."
Hubert Selby Jr. (1928--2004) was a celebrated author of nine novels, including the unflinching and unrelenting dark tale, The Willow Tree. His fiction is noted for its gritty portrayal of addiction and urban despair, and has influenced generations of authors, artists, and musicians.
Watch two of Selby's greatest champions—Rollins and celebrated playwright Amiri Baraka—examine why this tenacious author deserves to be amongst the "literary greats."

Hubert Selby Jr Interviewed by Ellen Burstyn Part 1
A clip of Requiem for a Dream actress Ellen Burstyn interviewing the writer of the original book, Hubert Selby Jr. The interview is from the special features on the Requiem for a Dream DVD.
I'm sure you'll agree that it's an incredibly moving and heartfelt interview, and a look into the mind of one of the great writers of the last generation.

Jared Leto about Hubert Selby Jr
Jared Leto talking about Hubert Selby Jr (author of 'Requiem for a Dream') in the documentary "Hubert Selby Jr: It/ll Be Better Tomorrow" (info at http://imdb.com/title/tt0437236 )
I haven't seen this anywhere else so I thought I'd share if someone else would find it interesting to hear as well.

They are one and the same and cannot be avoided or denied. So when I totally embrace this process, this life/death, and abandon myself to it, I transcend all this meaningless gibberish and hang out with the gods. It seems to me that that is worth the price of admission."
