Days of Wine And Roses

One of the earliest and most powerful dramas to address alcoholism, this heart-wrenching story examines the love affair between Joe and Kirsten, which eventually develops into a threesome – him, her and the bottle. Their relationship is a continual struggle of codependence, with their mutual passion for alcohol drawing them to one another, then threatening their intense passion for each other. Originally a television drama, then a well-known film starring Jack Lemmon and Lee Remick, this still relevant work explores their enduring love along with the destructive consequences of alcohol on mind, body, spirit and relationhips, while offering hope to those who need it most. Directing Days of Wine and Roses are Steven Walanka and Scott Rosengarden.
