I like the site garv, You've definitely put some time in, When I have time to watch movies I will use your reference. I think the same concept would work for booze tunes-there are many lists of favorites out there, but few with in depth reviews. Maybe I will have time after the WSOP.

valley of the dolls

fucking great campy poigniant movie..and probably the last pill drunken infused movie to use the word FAGS over and over again..

best part about the movie? the young lady looking to 'find' herself realizes she needs to be back home in new england..her boyfriend cheated on her..no surprise there..and she walks away in the snow covered woods.

neely is crying in the alley drunk alone and a fallen star..(at 26).. sharon tates charachter..(sadly) kills herself because she has to have a mastectomy and her body was her life...(foreshadow anyone??)

love the theme song..'gotta a get out...(dionne warwicke)

Just put Bad News Bears on my netflix list. I've always liked Walter Mathou and he looks like a drunky too.

I watched Never Give a Sucker an Even Break yesterday. Not the best Fields film, but good enough. There's this one bit where he dives off an aeroplane to rescue a bottle of brandy, falls 15'000 feet then lands in the bed of a beautiful woman. Heroic stuff.

It was true, he indulged in the sauce. However, his biggest vice was the dice. The man loved to gamble.

I just posted a review of MOONRUNNERS (1975), the film that inspired the TV series THE DUKES OF HAZZARD, on "Booze Movies: The 100 Proof Film Guide" Other recent reviews include...

I'LL CRY TOMORROW (1955)
OLD SCHOOL (2003)
HIS FAVORITE PASTIME (1914)
THE LAST FLIGHT (1931)

Stop by for a movie and a drink (not necessarily in that order) if you get the chance.

Cheers,

I like your site really but why haven't you gotten to Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle yet? Also you might want to include documentaries of interest, Born Into This and Buy the Ticket, Take the Ride come to mind.

I also feel you undervalue Where the Buffalo Roam. Plot or the lack of it hardly seems the point.
