WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesUnknown to anyone but those close to him, Dick Van Dyke had been struggling with a real-life drinking problem for several years prior to making this movie. Before filming began, he decided to tell director Richard Heffron about his struggles. As a result, while filming, Heffron would lay out scenes, then tell Van Dyke, "you know more about this than I do, so just do it the way you see it, the way you feel it." Just before the movie aired, Van Dyke decided to go public with his alcoholism struggles, becoming one of the first entertainment figures to go public about a drinking problem. He received thousands of letters of support.

Rudy King: [after Charlie has attended an important meeting while hung over] I'm not going to mince words, Charlie. We've known each other too long for that. You were a disgrace this morning; I can still smell the liquor on your breath. I don't know how many of those men knew you were hung over, but I certainly did.

Ausgewählte Rezension
I would love to have a copy of this movie. I saw it when it was on TV and I was actively drinking very heavily. I have been sober 30 years now but I will never forget this movie. Anyone know where to get a copy??? I feel like it would be an impact on may lives of alcoholics as well as drug abusers. It has a very profound message for all ages. The realism stems from Van Dykes own personal bout with alcohol abuse. He brings to the movie what no other has done and I have seen a lot of movies about addiction. Recovery programs this is a must see!!! Individuals with addictions should see this movie. It will make you self examine your addictions. Please, someone get this out to the public again. It should never have been stopped from viewing in the first place.
