Movie Reviews of The Lost Weekend

Movie Review: The Lost Weekend My Review
Summary: 5 Stars

Ray Millands portrayal of Don Birnum an alcholic writer is realistic for its time, He lies, steals, and hides His bottle. Jane Wyman does a great job in the loyal,forgiving,fiance role a scene that stands out for me is when He tries to pawn His typewriter. The Lost Weekend is one of the greatest movies to win Best Picture, showing the depths of Alcholisim.

Movie Review: A Classic Film With A Great Message ref: Alcoholism
Summary: 5 Stars

Anyone that has had to deal with alcoholism, will quickly realize that this film is right on the mark. Everything from the blackouts, the denial that there is a problem, the tremors, family disintegration, etc.

It was made in 1944, but it's impact and its significance is just as huge as if it were filmed in 2009. I highly recommend the film.

Movie Review: Moderation, Mista Boynum....Moderation.
Summary: 5 Stars

This film is a wonderful work of art alongside the likes of Casablanca. It is amazingly ahead of its time and in your face. The "DTs" are presented in a raw and frighteningly real showcase. Every character is interesting and memorable and the warm fuzzy black and white of New York City places you right in the middle of our hero's struggle.

Movie Review: 1 is too many and 100 is not enough
Summary: 5 Stars

A true classic. I have seen this movie many times and the DVD does it justice. This movie ranks in the top drinking movies of all time. Get a bottle of whisky and sit back and try to take a drink whenever Don does. I wish they had a version where only the booze was colorized. When I take over north america I will make it so - ruggedthug.com

Movie Review: The Best Movie Ever Made About Addiction!
Summary: 5 Stars

Simply a great, if at times, painful movie. Although it's about Alcoholism, the plot could just as easily apply to any substance addiction.

Ray Milland's peculiar delivery and diction is a good fit for this type of character and makes the movie very believable. Well written, directed and good cinematography.
