Leaving Las Vegas (DVD, 1998, Directors Cut Contemporary Classics)

Über dieses Produkt

Product Information

With LEAVING LAS VEGAS, director Mike Figgis spun critical gold out of what would appear to be a maudlin and hackneyed premise--a down-and-out drunk meets a hooker with a heart of gold. The reason for the film's success lies partly in its refusal to moralize, but mostly it is the strong performances of Nicholas Cage and Elisabeth Shue that make the story believable and poignant. Ben Sanderson (Cage) is a Hollywood screenwriter who has become an alcoholic. After being fired, he takes his severance pay to Las Vegas, where he plans to drink himself to death. There he meets Sera (Shue), a streetwise prostitute who responds both to Ben's wild antics and to his absolute gentleness. What Sera needs most is to be needed, and Ben needs her a lot. Figgis uses his whole bag of tricks--Sera talks to the camera, the exteriors are shot in grainy 16mm--but finally it is the perfectly-conceived relationship between these two wounded people that drew the rave reviews. The film was based on a novel by John O'Brien.

Set on drinking himself to death!
Carrying on a full movie as a drunk - only a few can do it with pizzazz - and Nicolas carries it off like a champion. One might normally get tired of a full-length movie drunk if he spent 2 hours just - drinking. so what makes THIS movie special is you see the other side of Nicolas in his feelings for his prostitute girlfriend he accidently met in Las Vegas. His compassionate side comes out making Leaving Las Vegas more than just another drunk story...a man you know will die from drinking, but a man you will miss because of his - warm HEART. The real him.
