Der Morgen danach: Directed by Sidney Lumet. With Jane Fonda, Jeff Bridges, Raul Julia, Diane Salinger. A washed up, alcoholic actress who is prone to blackouts wakes up next to a murdered man. Did she kill him and, if not, is she in danger?

“Jane Fonda gives an incredibly nuanced performance as a spiraling down drunkard, she researched the tragic 40u0026#39;s star Gail Russell who drank herself to death at 36 to fully understand her characters plight of a once promising actress reduced to blackouts and infamy. Jeff Bridges is almost as strong as a stranger trying to help her out of a situation she canu0026#39;t even remember. The rest of the cast gives good support starting with Raul Julia on down to a pre-stardom Kathy Bates in a tiny role, the problem is that the script that all this superior work is working with is ill conceived and not terribly well directed by the usually excellent Lumet.”
