The Days of Wine and Roses was an incredibly made film and illustrated the path of destruction an alcoholic often chooses.

Jack Lemmon's finest work.

That was a great film.Even better,IMO,was the version that was shown on live TV (a "Playhouse 90" kind of thing) back in the late 50's.Piper Laurie played the wife (*very* well,IMO) and Cliff Robertson played the husband...also very well.The same guy who played her father in the movie played that role in the original TV presentation.
