Das verlorene Wochenende (1945)
Der alkoholkranke Schriftsteller Don Birnam teilt sein Appartment in New York mit seinem Bruder, der alle Hände voll damit zu tun hat, das Alkoholproblem seines Bruders in den Griff zu bekommen. Als Don eines Nachts einmal nicht unter Beobachtung steht, kauft er sich ein Paar Flaschen Alkohol in einer Bar und betrinkt sich zuhause. Als er nächsten Morgen erneut dort auftaucht, behauptet der Besitzer, Don habe dessen Freundin misshandelt und bedroht ihn. Ohne Erinnerung, und von Selbstzweifeln geplant, flüchtet Don in die nächste Bar…
