Ray Milland played a great role and the movie has a motivational speech against alcoholism at the end which helped people like us to wake up and change their lives.Anonymous

The book is even better.
I hope you aren’t scared off from them, because both are truly enjoyable, in the sense that truly honest works are enjoyable.

“Permanant midnight” and “Drugstore cowboy” are two more I forgot about.All though I am trying to find more movies about recovery.
Permanent Midnight was awesome because it was based on a true story (so was Gia)
The only serious role I’ve seen Ben Stiller in.’Crazy Heart….Jeff Bridges and Maggie Gyllenhaal ….Robert Duvall (I see it was already mentioned)..I saw this in the theater…SO WORTH IT.

Rachel Getting Married w/ Anne Hathaway
I was really surprised by how great this movie was. I watched it twice in two days before I had to return it and think I will buy a copy.
