Watch Eugene Walter: Last of the Bohemians

Eugene Walter was a better version of Truman Capote, said Gore Vidal, living on the streets of Mobile Alabama after his family rejected him, traveling to Europe on an "ice cream freighter," hired by a princess to edit a word-class literary journal, helping George Plimpton start the Paris Review, acting in the films of Federico Fellini. His was a fairy tale life, a poem he invented day to day.

Eugene Walter: Last of the Bohemians is a 2014 documentary with a runtime of 1 hour and 8 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.4.
