>He made many enemies. Verlaine’s future biographer Lepelletier disapproved of his influence on his old friend Verlaine, and Rimbaud responded by calling him an ‘inkshitter’. When Lepelletier told Rimbaud to shut up, the boy threatened him with a table knife.
>He called poor Banville an ‘old cunt’, he stabbed the photographer Carjat with a sword-stick, he repaid the hospitality of Cabaner by going into Cabaner’s room when he wasn’t there and masturbating into his cup of milk.

Wow, just finished the movie on this fag staring DiCaprio, I know the movie was pretty shit and I doubt Rimbaud acted like this but wow do they make him look like a winey little edgy teen bitch. For being a pioneer in poetry that gave him a unlikeable personality, and I have nothing against fags but god did this movie make them look awful.

I don't understand most of the archaic terms/phrases referenced but god is it so good. I find it crazy how his influence was Baudelaire considering Baudelaire's style was much more perfectly conservative and shy, while Rimbaud was reckless,bold and just more assertive in general. I will say, they both have very hypnotic styles.
