@Charming Billy same here i thought about ending it. I dont think people realise how bad cold turkey is because some doctors equate it to the flu. If only it was like having the flu because when i have the flu i usually sleep through most of it but cold turkeying sleep is the last thing youre getting. Youre in tgat limbo of been to tired to stay awake but its impossible to get comfortable and end up like you have restless leg syndrome.

Sinatra’s performance of the heroin withdrawal scene is extremely accurate...like scarily so. That rolling off the bed while in the fetal position is EXACTLY what you do at the peak of it. Almost like Sinatra knew what it was like.

Yeah, for all of his bashing of method acting at the time Sinatra actually went method for that film and did all sorts of research at clinics and actually watched guys coming down off of heroin. From what I've read/heard his performance was actually pretty damn accurate

“The man with the golden arm” is an underrated flick about drug abuse. At that time, they didn’t do too many movies about drug use.

[@comment_creator_76]

[@thesoultwins72]

Tay Kitten Diaz.....it is - and I can highly recommend it! 'Harper' is actually based on Ross MacDonald's 1949 book 'The Moving Target' [which was the name given to the British film release] featuring a blatently 'Marlowesque' detective Lew Archer - although this was changed to Lew Harper for the film. It has some incredibly strong performances from the excellent cast - Paul Newman, Robert Wagner, Lauren Bacall, Arthur Hill, Pamela Tiffin, Robert Webber, Shelly Winters, Roy Jenson, Janet Leigh, Julie Harris and Strother Martin - and a truly brilliant screenplay by William Goldman. It's accomplished direction by Jack Smight maintains a snappy pace, with countless twists and turns and some wonderfully humorous dialogue between the main characters that even Raymond Chandler would have been proud of!

The other thing i've just noticed is, Mcqueen, like this hand thing, had a habit of doing very subtle things unscripted to get more noticeable, apparently he did this a lot on Magnificent 7.

[@chadwarren9677]

Bill, your vids almost make my KZbin addiction worthwhile. You know how to use this medium well. You have found where being a Hollywood star and being a disgruntled regular Joe overlaps. This medium lends itself to independent analysis which can be real delusional, weak and sad like hanging one's identity on arguing about a new Star Wars movie or commenting on beef between stars and comedians like everyone is the National Enquirer or some schmuck paparazzi. But showing old Hollywood is a good idea because by seeing how the social programming of what is cool is we can think about writing our own lives instead of just being consumers. I think there is a way to be creative and inspired by entertainment to be more of a character locally influencing and receiving as part of some kind of local scene even if we have to make that up. Acting or sharing social commentary as a comedian is connected to representing roles and experimenting with how they affect society beyond us. When I first did acid at 19, I noticed we're always posing like a mime without realizing it. We model behavior we've seen and integrated into our sense of self or we create our own moves perhaps but to communicate it has to be something understood by others. It would be nice if acting and stand up were done more locally for the purpose of therapy and a love for the work vs an attempt to become famous. There should be a new kind of hangout to produce content as a group of co-creators - we could make movies, have bands and just a local Hollywood meets the local type culture. This social media needs to develop into a real culture locally instead of us isolated.
