It is the definitive movie on alcoholism. Lee Remick is just as great. You gotta see it, man.

Oh yes. I did turn it on in the middle of it once. Only watched a few minutes because I hate not seeing a movie from the beginning. But, just from the few minutes I saw, Lemmon's performance was amazing. Didn't he win the Oscar for that role?

No---He was nominated for that one, though.....

from my trusty IMdb:

He received nominations in comedy - Some Like It Hot (1959), Apartment, The (1960) - and drama - Days of Wine and Roses (1962), China Syndrome, The (1979), Tribute (1980) and Missing (1982). He won the Best Actor Oscar for Save the Tiger (1973)

You ever see Save the Tiger?...Excellent movie of a business man down on his luck...excellent. He deserved the Oscar, for sure...

No, never seen it, Steve. But thanks for the tip!

Speaking of a businessman down on his luck, how about FALLING DOWN with Michael Douglas?? Man! What an intense flick!

Wasnt that the one where his character gets stuck in traffic, and goes off the deep end?

Yes, exactly 40!

Yes...Douglas had that crew cut and the short-sleeve shirt that was a bit too small....and Robert Duvall was the guy that was going to bring him in...

Yes, Steve!! Douglas did an AWESOME job in that movie. Dude was scary, man.
