| Beskrivelse:
Winner of four Academy Awards including Best Picture, this stunning drama from master director Billy Wilder (Sunset Boulevard, Some Like it Hot) stars Ray Milland (Dial M for Murder) as an alcoholic writer who falls into a maelstrom of delusion and dementia during a three-day bender. A groundbreaking look at the dangers of alcoholism that was held back from release, the film''s relentless depiction of hard-drinking still packs a powerful punch due to a harrowing, Oscar winning performance by Milland.Don Birnam shares an apartment in New York City in the 1940s with his upright brother, who struggles to deal with Don''s drinking problem. Sworn off the bottle, Don encourages his brother to take his girlfriend (Jane Wyman) to a show, but before long descends into yet another drinking frenzy. Consumed by self-doubt, Don tries to work on his novel, but instead steals money to fund more trips to the bar and a whiskey-fueled nightmare that ends in a psychiatric ward. |
