02
Leaving Las Vegas
Why this pick
A raw, intimate addiction drama that shares Flight’s unsparing attention to alcohol dependence, damaged dignity, and the painful humanity beneath destructive behaviour.

Clean and Sober
Why this pick
Its pressured, character-first recovery story echoes Flight’s blend of professional collapse, denial, and reluctant confrontation with the truth.
04
The Lost Weekend
Why this pick
This psychologically vivid portrait of alcoholism has the same willingness as Flight to place viewers inside denial and compulsion without softening the consequences.
05
A Star Is Born
Why this pick
