The Lost Weekend - One of Billy Wilder's darker and more obscure directorial works, about an alcoholic with writers block. A sad story that is both moving and witty. Wilder gets the balance of tone just right, as he has a knack for with these films. The score is a little overly-dramatic at times and has that sort of "furly-wurly" sound you'd normally associate with sci-fi of the same era, but this is an otherwise excellent film.
