Days of Wine and Roses

DramaRomance117 min

A public-relations man with a growing dependence on alcohol falls for a young secretary, and their romance quickly becomes a marriage organized around drinking. Jack Lemmon is the husband whose charm and appetite for the next round keep the pattern going, while Lee Remick’s young wife is drawn into the same spiral until the couple’s bond and their home life begin to fray. What starts with parties and shared indulgence turns into cycles of strain, family conflict, and attempts at rehabilitation as both of them struggle to break a habit they built together.
