Little monkeys through a keyhole

Not so long ago I bought the Charles R. Jackson novel The Lost Weekend because I heard so many good things about it. I haven't read it yet, but I heard there's a movie based on it, directed by Billy Wilder no less. And what a movie. Ray Milland as the hopeless alcoholic writer Don Birnam is one of the best performed characters I've ever witnessed and it's brilliant in the sense that at the same time you are disgusted by and craving for some of that rye whiskey the movie some marvellously revolves around.
