Leaving Las Vegas.

What a great movie. Wonderful performances by every one in the movie.

8. Bring your Prozac ...

Deargod ... yeah, it's a good movie. It's also one of the most depressing movies I have ever seen.

11. My Dear CaliforniaPeggy
Please do not see this expecting a feel-good movie.
Nicholas Cage is drinking himself to death in it.

3. Feel Good?
:shrug:


well if you realize that addiction kills and you are on a path of recovery, then it might make one feel good to know that they might have averted disastrous death at the hands of addiction, or at least postponed it.

6. Great, but hardly feel-good!
Cage's best role. And nice to see Shue not playing a goody-goody girl for once.

Scene I always remember was Cage going to The Whole Year Inn and he reads the sign as The Hole You're In.

10. Did you mean "Honeymoon in Vegas"?
Edited on Sat Aug-02-08 04:22 AM by SemiCharmedQuark



Because Leaving Las Vegas is a good movie, but...not quite the feel good movie of the decade. Now Honeymoon in Vegas...I think that has dancing Elvises or something. How can anyone not love that?
