	The Lost Weekend (1945)
		Billy Wilder's film The Lost Weekend is most intriguing when you examine what he's trying to say about alcoholics, about human nature, and the plight of man when he battles the bottle.
		The film does reach the level of absurdity for a modern audience, but considering the newness of the subject the film was tackling, one has to wonder how audiences took it when it was first released.

	The Lost Weekend
		Although hardly the best film in the late great Billy Wilder's cannon, one could make the argument that The Lost Weekend was his most important.
		Just because The Lost Weekend is one of Wilder's serious films, that doesn't prevent him from working a number of memorable lines into the screenplay.
		He will not only need the same effort, willpower, and determination that had kept him straight for "10 days" until this lost weekend, he will need far more to prevent once again undoing anything he might have accomplished.

	Lost Weekend Comments
		Bands such as Spade Cooley's (even though Spade was, by nativity, an Okie) and Tex Williams' Western Caravan were paramount in defining the California version of Western Swing during its "golden era".
		Lost Weekend currently holds court as the bunch that plays real Western Swing in the Bay Area and beyond.
		After 14 years of promoting this show, I had to give it up for several reasons...first...it was a big money loser, and could never get any good sponsors......second probably because I am a poor business man...and third my regular job began to interfere.

		Many films have been made about alcoholism, but surely one of the best is "The Lost Weekend".
		Milland himself was reluctant, for the character is a detestable anti-hero: selfish, lying, stealing, and caring about nothing except for getting another drink.
		"The Lost Weekend" begins as it ends, with a camera pan of the New York City landscape.

		Now, considering how rare it is that you lose something and really know that it's lost, tell me this: How often is it that you lose two things—two of the same things, no less—over the course of two days and really know that they are lost?

	The Lost Weekend
		Based on the novel by Charles Jackson, a work that many in Hollywood had thought unfilmmable because of its relentless grimness, The Lost Weekend was one of the first films to explore the devastating effects of alcoholism.
		Ray Milland was cast against type as Don Birnam, a writer plagued by depression and self-doubt who, as his alcoholism progresses, slips into a horrifying downward spiral of lying, begging, stealing, and madness.
		This facsimile edition of The Lost Weekend not only reveals the genius of the film but also illuminates how the script stands alone as a rare, wonderful piece of writing.

		You'd think that a gathering of more than 300 top-flight conservative pundits, politicians and activists taking place ten days after a presidential impeachment and barely a week before a Senate trial, both triggered by a Republican majority vote, might be a moment of high celebration.
		Organized three years ago as a counter to the presidentially preferred touch-me-feel-me Renaissance Weekend, the conservative Weekend is supposed to be a much more straightforward, more cerebral sort of political forum on the future of the right.
		By 8:55 am on the Weekend's first morning, Phillips had successfully bored even the faithful as he droned on about how he's turned the impeachment drive into a multimillion-dollar commercial bonanza.

		Don's wrenching desperation is painful -- he justifies his drinking by explaining that booze makes him feel like he's soaring, yet agonizes over the awfulness of waking up at dawn to realize the bars don't open for hours.
		As the weekend passes, he spirals deeper and deeper into anguish, tearing Wick's apartment apart in search of a hidden bottle, wandering the streets of New York in search of an open pawn shop, looking to hock his typewriter for money for booze.
		As horrifying in its own way as Trainspotting (though less graphic), The Lost Weekend turns a searing gaze on one man's nightmare and won't let him -- or us -- wake up.
