On this day in 1962, WARNER BROTHERS PICTURES released THE DAYS OF WINE AND ROSES. Directed by BLAKE EDWARDS from a screenplay by J. P. MILLER, this amazingly performed story of a prosperous young couple’s descent into alcoholism is an incredible portrait of its time. The cast was headlined by JACK LEMMON and LEE REMICK with great supporting help from CHARLES BICKFORD, JACK KLUGMAN and JACK ALBERTSON. Fans of TV’s hit series MAD MEN would do well to check this out.
