I would think pouring the spit jar on your head to get a drink would be rock bottom.  I always thought the scene of him drinking his prize bottle was supposed to be interpreted as part of his turnaround, where he stops waiting for something to happen to him and starts proactively seeking out happiness.  It's not a…

Best moment in the history of cinema: the end of Blind Fury, when Rutger Hauer swings his sword at the main bad guy who then falls out the window(?) and off the cliff, and then after like three or four seconds of watching him falling you realize (Spoiler Alert!)  that he has been cut in half.

On the bright side, I can't help thinking that usually that kind of plot would have Morgan Freeman as the Magic Negro.  If he gets to be the depressed one, is that progress of a kind?
