Drunks

I saw Blackout, the play that this movie is based, when it played in Los Angeles. The play itself is incredible and is one of the best plays in theater, in my opinion. The movie, Drunks, captures what is best about the play: the great writing and dialog that when given to talented actors, create unforgettable performances that will make you laugh and cry. The characters, their stories, and their world are real. There is no preaching or message or apologetic reason given. The characters are all in transit in their own lives and for their own reasons. And you're allowed a fascinating glimpse into their lives. If you enjoy great writing and performances and watching people in their nakedly honest moments, you should watch Drunks.

As a recovering alcoholic, and having seen some of the "preachy" movies, or the drama of Days of Wine and Roses, I found this movie to be just what it is, an AA meetings. Nothing to prove. Nothing to say. Each telling his story and one can take what he needs, and leave the rest. I enjoyed it as a means of letting others get an inside look at a meeting. Not much else to say. As for the relapse of Lewis, and his going back out and using, it was OK, but his return at the end, starting all over again, is just the way it is. Good movie, but not good enough to watch again and again.

Wow. What a BRILLIANT piece of cinema. Drunks has to be hands down one of the most important and accurate films I've seen to date about Substance abuse. As a person with a father who died of Alcoholism, this film really helped me gain understanding. It helped me not only cope with my father's disease but gave me tremendous understanding to what he went through as an addict. Having attended a lot of the AAA meetings in my life, the film was spot on. Brilliant, real, funny, and full of heart... and tears. I would recommend adding this to your library if you haven't already.

Excellent, honest, does not pull any punches in it's grim reality of addiction and the struggles to get clean. The writing by Mr. Lennon is so truthful that it does not seem like a movie we are watching, but peeking into people's lives. The acting and direction were inspired and very realistic. If you want to see an honest movie about addiction and the ravages it causes...this is it. Be ready because it is not some Hollywood sugar coated piece of fluff thatt we are sujected to. Looking forward to seeing more of Mr. Lennon's writing transfered to film...a truly honest and unique voice. Incredible performances by all of the cast. Tight direction as well. Stands up to films in this genre..."Panic in Neddle Park", "Hatful of Rain"...etc...Don't miss it.

I rented this and was very surprised by how good it was. The writing was so strong and the actors took those words and soared. There is not one false note. It felt like a CASSAVETTES film. Honesty on screen is what I look for in films. This film felt like real life. Real time. I could relate to these characters. Feel their pain. Their stories were compelling. I couldn't take my eyes of the screen My favorite performances were Lisa Gay Hamilton and the late Howard Rollins. They moved me to tears. I hope this movie gets to be seen by others who are struggling with addiction. The message finally got to me and it is interesting that it came to me in the guise of a movie. I am now going out and buying the DVD and the play that the film is based on. Thank you to the film makers.

they say in the program "one day at a time". some days are harder than others. DRUNKs represents that better than any film i have ever seen. I am the member of a twelve step program. I think it is one of the greatest international communities that exists. it has changed countless lives and i am hard pressed to think or find one person who's life hasn't been affected positively by it's existence. it is a secular religion -if you will. I believe this is the most realistic and resonant film that has ever taken as it's focus the program and it's demographic busting community. i think the level of talent that came together to make this is a testament to it's quality. it is not a rose colored take on the community. it reflects as does the program the myriad ways that people use, don't use, succeed and fail. it is the truth as i experience it.

Drunks first and foremost is a great actors piece, showing that director Peter Cohn definitely knowing how to direct actors (in that sense, anyone who wants to be a director and actor should watch this film). It really gives the ensemble cast something to work with. Especial kudos go to Richard Lewis as the main character Jim who is still at a crisis in his life after being 2 years sober and ends "relapsing" to use a Alcoholics Anonymous term (this film takes place during an AA meeting). Secondary kudos to supporting characters Dianne Wiest and Faye Dunaway. Also be on the lookout for a young Calista Flockhart (of Ally McBeal fame). A strong 8 out of 10.
