Starring: My Name is Morgan Freeman One of Reagan's favorite movies, apparently. At least one that moved me to write in his journal was the most LB generic one-sentence entry. So at least we know what kind of user he would be. As for the movie, there’s not enough…

Keaton gives one of the 10 greatest performances in the history of cinema and helps elevate this movie from very good to excellent. One of the hidden treasures of the 1980's.

Michael Keaton's first real dramatic role, and it's a brave and impressive performance. His character is unlikable at times but it's a credit to Keaton's talent that you still want to see him succeed. It's a thoroughly engrossing story and the direction by …

"Days of Wine and Roses" but for the '80s (hence cocaine as the protagonist's abused substance). In the league of rehab dramas, this one's more truthful, measured, and unsentimental than some of its contemporary peers, like Meg Ryan's treacly "When a Man Loves a Woman",…
