What is the best movie about alcoholism?
Like if you never had a drink combo what movie would give you an idea what it's like?

Is that rated R?

It really depends what you're looking for.
If you want a depiction of an alcoholic waking nightmare, go with Wake in Fright.
If you want a depiction of directionless adults drinking and waiting to die, go with Trees Lounge.
If you want a depiction of a degen "functional" alcoholic having his life crumble around him, go with Boiling Point or Flight.

Alcoholism itself is a pretty broad topic.

Withnail and I is a great movie for that phase where it's still fun, but you know that it can't last and that things will begin falling apart really soon

The lost weekend is pretty good, but if you're really interested in the mindset of what it's like read the book. It's the most accurate depiction imo ever put down.

Alcohol and drug use is fun and glamorous. I recommend 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas'. Don't listen to these miserable sad sacks

Not a movie, but the show sharp objects did a great job with the alcoholism bits. Really reminded me of the darker days of my past, complete with water bottles filled with vodka.

There are no good films about drinking that don't feature guilt, regret and depression. I just want a fun movie feautring an alcoholic having the time of his life

there are takeaways near me that sell tylenol equivalents at big markups as part of their hangover cure package, genuinely devilish
