This movie reaffirms something I've always known,...


i *beep* hate alcoholics. Two good looking people, particularly Leigh Remick who was hotter than hell, that destroyed themselves and almost killed their little girl. Only Joe had the sense to pull out.
This movie made me sad in so many ways. They had such love together that died.
I have to say this movie made me cry.

Don't forget...he threatened to leave her when she wouldn't drink while nursing their baby...thats really a rotten thing to do! I had more sympathy for her even though he got help in the end.

no doubt this film was meant to be brutal.

oops -- wrong topic!

Saying you hate alcoholics is like saying you hate people with diabetes. It's a disease, not a choice.
