The female protagonist is also a male protagonist addict

There are gamblers, alcoholics, smokers, poisonous ghosts, and all kinds of addicts in this world.

And the heroine of this film, like the hero's addict, can't quit no matter how he persuades.

Some people say that this is true love, but it is not necessary to think about it. This man can kiss other women for the sake of wine, and these heroines don't know.

The ending seems to be good, the heroine gave hope to the hero, but what can the hero do even if he writes a novel, can he bear the pain of the failure of the novel again? The male protagonist is someone who can't do anything except writing and doesn't want to do anything. Writing is the whole of his life. The life of such a person is like a gamble. Before winning the gamble, he lives on the support of others, self-esteem and confidence. Naturally will go down. As the male protagonist said, many people live a desperate life in silence. Since his body and mind are beyond salvation, it is better to give him a happy life.

The Lost Weekend quotes

  • 'Bim' Nolan, Male Nurse: Prohibition - that's what started most of these guys off. Whoopie. Now, be a good boy and drink this.

    Don Birnam: I don't want it.

    'Bim' Nolan, Male Nurse: Better take it. Liable to be a little floor show later on, around here. It might get on your nerves.

    Don Birnam: Floor show?

    'Bim' Nolan, Male Nurse: Ever hear of the DTs?

    Don Birnam: No!

    'Bim' Nolan, Male Nurse: You will, brother.

    Don Birnam: Not me!

    'Bim' Nolan, Male Nurse: Like to make a little bet? After all, you're just a Freshman. Wait till you're a Sophomore. That's when you start seeing the little animals. You know that stuff about pink elephants? That's the bunk. It's little animals. Little tiny turkeys in straw hats. Midget monkeys coming through the key holes. See that guy over there? With him, its beetles. Come the night, he sees beetles crawling all over him. Has to be dark though.

  • Mrs. Deveridge: He's off on another toot! And you know I'm darned right.
