When Blake Edwards' powerful film of J.P. Miller's heart-rending teleplay Days of Wine and Roses hit movie screens, it won critical raves, box-office success and shone brightly as a career highlight for its two Oscar-nominated stars, Jack Lemmon and Lee Remick, playing a couple caught in alcoholism's web. A San Francisco public-relations hotshot is a "social" drinker... who never stops socialising. His vivacious wife starts drinking to keep him company. They live for the good times. But eventually good times turn bad.
Days of Wine and Roses earned a total five Academy Award nominations and a Best Song Oscar for its haunting Henry Mancini - Johnny Mercer title tune. A poignant, harrowing portrait of human lives at their lowest, it also reflects film-making at its height.
