Rewatching, thought it could explain why love couldn't save him. The starting point of alcoholism should be the pain of losing a child (there is a son in the burnt family photos, and there are children’s bicycles in the disposed items. If a divorced wife takes away the son, the car should be taken away), so love still can’t fill my heart that gap. -nm! Re-read the paragraph about the casino getting drunk Can't stop. It can only be said that the heroine met him too late, he has been poisoned too deeply, and he wants death instead of life.

The question now is why did you end up having that sex? I understand that men have never been able to do it before, but there, are they all defaulting to drinking too much xx and they can die immediately? At least before, he recruited prostitutes for company, not for sex, so does he really need sex now? Or is it just a result of this relationship?

The heroine endured the violence of her former boyfriend, not only M mentality, she is a real Virgin! The male protagonist said, "You can never stop me from drinking." She was so determined, "I know", I guess her father is an alcoholic. In short, she really had a problem, so she kept looking for her boyfriend in the garbage heap, grabbing each other a little bit so that she could tolerate all the damage caused by the other party. Great, I went to see a psychiatrist, I can't change others, I can only change myself.

Both played extremely well. Cage was the best in his career, and the indignant heroine didn't get a golden statuette, but she gave it to Susan Sarandon in "Death Row Walk", which was rich in gold back then!

By the way, how can the hostess live in such a good place? With a swimming pool, it is a good community. The ex-boyfriend is regarded as a thing when he is charged for debts, and she is just a street girl. (I got 500 back in one night and was beaten, maybe I earned a lot?)

I saw that the author of the novel committed suicide 2 weeks after selling the film rights, only 34 years old. so sad, so, could "Lost Weekend" also have a tragic ending...
