Yeah but then Robert Downey Jr became Ironman and his career took off and he beat his drug habit and now has been become so successful now. This movie was really good but sad because both Blair, & Jullian and Clay were rich and beautiful and they really ended up with Less Than Zero. The music by Thomas Newman is on ebay the soundtrack if you guys are looking for it. The music is so haunting. Good movie which was made back in the 80s Brett Easton Ellis is a good writer he did American Psycho Less Than Zero and Glamorama, All Best Sellers The 80s had some great movies and music too.
What people don’t understand when they think of addiction is that addiction to drugs is not the problem itself. People have problems that they try to cure with drugs by escaping reality. Don’t treat people for drug abuse treat their problems and you’ll save them.
Ivan Terrible I grew up around addicts in my family. I even had some problems myself but I got out of it. I’m no expert but I think I have had enough experience and talked to some experts to understand this a bit better.
Ivan Terrible I just thought about something. I remember about a scientific experiment in which scientists spiked the water of rats with cocaine. I remember that the findings of the experiment were that rats become addicts when they are isolated while when they have good healthy social relationships they stay clean. I guess for humans, one side of it is self medicating trying to heal the pain of other issues and the other is unhealthy relationships.
@@FinalBoys1982 Rat Utopia is the name of the docu. Amazing and disturbing. The rats ignore the coke laced water when all their physical and psychological needs are met. But giving them everything fucks them up in different ways. Some start focusing on grooming and refuse to let others touch them etc. I felt it should be included in the high school corriculum
I've been in Clay's position before in this scene. You go from a relatively normal and stable environment to seeing the darkest side of humanity. You're all alone and people lean on you because you are the father/husband/friend/savior that everyone needs but still they choose their dark path. And they either like that path or they don't know how to get out of it. You can't save them, either, because they will drag you down with them. They have to want to leave the shit behind forever and go with you right then and there. You can always be faithful, kind and loyal. But if the person you're trying to help doesn't care or wants to live that life, you have to let go...
Robert Downey Jr should’ve won an Oscar for this role alone. He’s so freaking amazing. I had chills watching this scene alone. He deserves more credit and I’m really sad that people got to know him better just because of the role iron man. He definitely did great roles before playing iron man.
@@rolandet the thing is that he has other phenomenal roles but iron man is the only role that people remember him doing. For instance Angelina Jolie is a big star that is known for her performances in all her roles not just one specific role. I think he deserves to be known for his other roles as well not just one specific role
I disagree But a good movie. Go ask Alice 1973 is a better movie and we’ll educate movie about drug addiction. Also Lady sings the Blues 1972 Dianna Ross did golden in the movie as biography about Billie Holiday
@Anthony Williams I don't even watch this film for its accurate depiction of drugs hahaha I just enjoy the visuals, the pacing, the exaggerated 80's landscape with it's lush lighting, elaborate/over-the-top parties. The music is my absolute favorite aspect. That stood out to me the most in the film. Certain movies, not all, I just enjoy for the craft...while others I really watch for their accuracy/authenticity with a certain subject. It all fluctuates for me from film to film. I just wish cinema was still good. Modern movies blow. Thanks for those recommendations though. I'll give them a viewing!
Brett Easton Ellis, the author of the book always maintained that Robert Downy Jr. performance was the only thing he enjoyed about the movie. And with good reason.
Back in the 90's, I swear everyone thought that he was going to die. This movie was incredibly good and so sad. I've watched it several times and Robert never fails to put me through an emotional rollercoaster.
I think he was also so ashamed that he had stolen the ring from Clay's family that he couldn't bring himself to use it to score drugs. As sick / addicted as he was, he wanted Clay to know that their friendship was more important and he was sorry.
@@vps4350 yeah like @79improve said, you're right about it just having to do with Julian showing Clay he valued his friendship and regretted stealing his mother's ring to score more drugs.
this film scarred me for life...since i saw it "that day at the cinema"....never forget it...i cried so much...& this scene is ..... best score up till this day.
Less Than Zero is just as dramatic as the 1986 remake of The Fly and has an ending that is equally tragic and depressing. At first you see Clay becoming really bothered by the people he knows trying to cover for other people and their problems, then Blair starts to realize that she’s uncomfortable with the life she’s living and cannot deny there’s a problem anymore. But when Clay and Blair try to rescue Julian, it becomes futile because Julian couldn’t rescue himself.
@@alexgataricit was thoroughly explained in the movie that his father had already sent him to rehab and he just faked his way through it like Matthew Perry did - he lied and stole from the family - that's why even his own brother tried to kick his ass when he showed up at the house. So his father rightly took the "tough love" approach, kicked him out, cut him off from relatives giving him money, and let him hit rock bottom - which he did, which is why he came crawling back to his dad, who agreed to help him if he'd pledge to stay clean for a week, after which Julian tells Rip he's quitting and going into rehab (i.e. taking the deal his father offered).
I can't believe it ! Has it truly been that long ? I was 17 when this film was in theaters. Still one of my favorites, I watch it whenever it's on tv like I'm seeing it for the first time. The soundtrack is classic.
MY FIANCE & I WATCHED THIS IN 1986,WE WERE ADDICTED TO PRESCRIPTION DRUGS & IT SCARED ME INTO TREATMENT...I HAVE A HUGE CRUSH ON ROBERT....ESPECIALLY AFTER WATCHING CHAPLIN & IRONMAN!!HE WASN'T ACTING,AT THAT MOVIES ARRIVAL ROBERT WAS DEALING WITH THE SAME PROBLEM!HE HIRED A FELLA TO STAY WITH HIM IN CASE HE WANTED TO GET HIGH...BRILLIANT!!ACCOUNTABILITY WAS HIS LIFE PRESERVER!!I'M 11 YRS CLEAN NOW,IT HAS BEEN WORTH EVERY HARDSHIP THAT CAME MY WAY...I SURVIVED . ..
RDJ had lived this life for many years which was sad but out of it came something greater He is now ome the biggest movie stars in Hollywood We love you RDJ and so happy your still with us Ironman is my favorite comic book character's in all of Marvel
It breaks my heart seeing what RDJ went though for years, so happy he stopped and is healthy and doing so much better. He doesn’t like being asked about his past cause that’s something you want to forget and that’s understandable. Love him so much!
What few people know is that Robert Downey Jr was already an addict by the time this movie was made, he was using it during filming, and when it called for him to do the scenes where he was withdrawing from drugs he actually was. He stopped using just days before filming so viewers could see what it was really like for an addict to withdraw and suffer so horribly. Many people may disagree with me but that was a stroke of genius on his part so people could understand what addicts faced on and off of drugs. This is what sets RDJ apart from many other actors. His methods of getting an earth-shattering scene for the audience had their downfalls. Though this was a difficult time of his life, I have nothing but respect for the man. It made him the strong talented man he is today. My husband was an addict for most of his youth and struggled for years trying to free himself of addiction. People say drugs are a choice. They may begin that way but they certainly don't remain that way...addiction is a journey few people survive and pull themselves out of. Many either die or spend their entire lives battling their addictions. I used to think it was the life they chose, I now know that this way of life chooses them.
Lol. My God this comment needs removed for some serious misinformation. There are so many reports that cite the same quote from RDJ that his drug use got worse during this film. Withdrawals are an addicts biggest fear and why they relapse or don't seek treatment, as RDJ also experienced. The film was dark and only reminded him of his pain, and to hide it, he used more. This scene, although good, is so clearly exaggerated. He is not actually withdrawing 😂😂 but rather high as hell to cope, as he himself stated.
@@kerrajohnson3203what was so great about his performance was he seemed like the Devil to us, but he was actually very rational from his own POV. Rip knew junkies better than anyone. Julian had lied to him and played him while he turned himself from a drug abuser into a drug addict to hide from his failure in business - Rip knew junkies like Julian were beyond saving, so he was just focused on "settling their account" before he died - Rip's line near the end about "EVERYONE is accountable" is so chilling in that context. What Rip said to Clay about "I am not the problem here; Julian is the problem" was so true. Julian was almost saved by the love of his friends and family, but it's a good warning to the audience that he wasn't.
A lot of good actors in this movie including the always very good James Spader but RDJ was fantastic, his performance in the scene in particular is amazing.
You never see this movie pop up on regular tv. I think because it was RDJs life at that time and Hollywood doesnt want to show it because it was too real life.
Fantastic cast, incredible cinematography, billiant, heart-wrenching score. Such and under-appreciated masterpiece of cinema and was decades ahead of its time for 1987. I saw it when it came out then. In L.A., no less. It still has the same impact it did then.
@@elchango6183 the La Quinta Resort lol yeah, it's changed owners so many times & I worked loss prevention for years there & met all sorts of celebrities & I have even gotten drugs for celebs. Downey got busted when I was a kid tho, so back then I was probably 8 or 9 maybe & there was nothing out here but the resort so he was probably staying there at the time & Indio is a shit hole town outta the whole valley & he was there in Indio getting drugs. Where Coachella is held is Indio, our valley is called Coachella valley.
Very accurate representation of opioid withdrawal. Vomiting, cold/hot sweats, too weak to sit up, but too anxious to fall asleep, he even had the fidgeting legs perfect. Heed this warning for anyone thinking of trying heroin; it will ruin your life fast and eventually, you WILL have to go through withdrawal.
Dick Gregory, Civil Rights Leader, Comedian, tried to help Marvin Gaye by going cold turkey. He didnt show up at dick's house, he got very angry and washed his hands of marvin. A couple of days later, he died one day before his 45th birthday in 1984.
I was an alcoholic to i remember my last hangover I thought alcohol poisoning I felt couldn't breath or throw up but I did throw finally my mom did the hemlich to help to me throw up.
This scene and the ending scene was so true and sad...he's such an amazing actor...the background theme makes it even heart breaking...(curious, what's that theme song called) its so sad..
You know this movie the title says it all Less Than Zero b/c they didn't have anything and they may have been rich and young and some of them successful and this movie was so depressing and sad b/c Julian Wells's mother passed away when he was 5 and that's what killed him and made him do drugs and he just drowned in his own despair over the death of his mother and Blair had her own issues too and she was doing cocciane and she was a model and living the high life and Clay was going to school in the East Coast and Julian Wells owed money to Rip (James Spader) 50,000 and Jullian was desperate and alone and fighting for his life and maybe just dying would have been better for him. Robert Downey Jr played this role and he was nominated for Chaplin and then he became an Avenger and kicked his Drug Habit and now is the most successful actor of his generation. He was also in Weird Science. Also Andrew McCarthy was in a couple of good movies and Jami Gertz was in Twister in 1996 and The Lost Boys in 1987 and Solarbabies in 1985. James Spader did the Blacklist (TV)series and was in the Avengers Age Of Ultron...
“Who’s gonna take care of you guys when I’m gone?” Behind every addict is a broken heart.
RDJ has been an Oscar calibre actor for decades.
I always thought this was so dark and RDJ played this so good because he basically lived that life sadly.
Sadly...
You don’t just wake up one day addicted. I guarantee you RDJ was dealing with this at least to some extent when this movie was made
Yeah but then Robert Downey Jr became Ironman and his career took off and he beat his drug habit and now has been become so successful now. This movie was really good but sad because both Blair, & Jullian and Clay were rich and beautiful and they really ended up with Less Than Zero. The music by Thomas Newman is on ebay the soundtrack if you guys are looking for it. The music is so haunting. Good movie which was made back in the 80s Brett Easton Ellis is a good writer he did American Psycho Less Than Zero and Glamorama, All Best Sellers The 80s had some great movies and music too.
@@Choices2aa Ellis initially hated this adaptation of his work, only praising RDJ’s character and disparaging the screenplay versus his original work.

Incredible film indeed. Made an edit using the weeknds song. Hope you like it! th-cam.com/video/w3x2kvfOFTY/w-d-xo.html
Well those of us who are older know him well. He had a lot of roles in the 80s and 90s.
Best line from RDJ. Clay we'll go back to college. "Do I look like I'm ready for homework" That one really stands out for me.
best line in the movie !
He should’ve won something for this
He won a millions of heart
Naflatem 72 AGREED, this is some of his best acting

They captured the essence of addiction so well in this movie. The sweats, paranoia, disparity
Kid was great. Should have 5 oscars. Someone doesn’t like him in the academy
They do now !! ❤😊
Blair's didn't realize that Julian really needed to be hospitalized
Brett Easton Ellis, the author of the book always maintained that Robert Downy Jr. performance was the only thing he enjoyed about the movie. And with good reason.
Andrew McCarthy was good in this as well.
RDJ is one of the best ever actor.
He enjoyed Spader's performance as well :)
His views of the film later softened. The film is very loosely based on the book anyway.
The movie is nothing like the book. There was absolutely no empathy for Julian in the book 🤣
Back in the 90's, I swear everyone thought that he was going to die. This movie was incredibly good and so sad. I've watched it several times and Robert never fails to put me through an emotional rollercoaster.
2:20 when he gave him the ring it was his way of saying he knew he was going to die soon.

This was so heartbreaking. He should have one an award
He got so violently ill he was having berry bad withdrawals
The soundtrack complemented the film brilliantly.
You mean Thomas Newman =)
Julian did not know it, but he was slowly killing himself.
See I think deep down inside he really did know, which makes it all the more tragic.
Director: “Cut! Great take Robert.”

6 years without alcohol or drugs

It's a very Stark performance :)
Robert Downey Jr is phenomenal in this movie.(Oddly enough,I really like his performances when he was an addict in real life.)
It’s good to know watching this that he he clean and sober now. He played the hell out of this role though.
You never see this movie pop up on regular tv. I think because it was RDJs life at that time and Hollywood doesnt want to show it because it was too real life.
This is what ruined him! The addiction!please save ppls lives!
How in the FUCK did RDJ not win an Oscar

I remember the scene when Julian started to hook with men, that was so sad to see what people involved in drugs are willing to do.
Understanding the indescribable desolation of the broken heart is the first step in understanding the self-crucifixion of the addict.
I must've gone to the bathroom during this part of Iron Man
Sad movie but he was living life like a rock star!
This scene is so fucking haunting. Hes not acting.
RDJ one of the greatest actors !!!!
He got busted in the town next to where I live in La Quinta California, a town called *"Indio"* that's why his son is named Indio Downey.

Very accurate representation of opioid withdrawal. Vomiting, cold/hot sweats, too weak to sit up, but too anxious to fall asleep, he even had the fidgeting legs perfect. Heed this warning for anyone thinking of trying heroin; it will ruin your life fast and eventually, you WILL have to go through withdrawal.
Now he is tony stark anything can happen when you kick the habit
Who would of thought? His worst dumbest role is what people know him from now.
Dick Gregory, Civil Rights Leader, Comedian, tried to help Marvin Gaye by going cold turkey. He didnt show up at dick's house, he got very angry and washed his hands of marvin. A couple of days later, he died one day before his 45th birthday in 1984.
Withdrawal is absolute hell. But having a beautiful Jami Gertz nursing you back to health certainly takes away the sting a bit lol.
What’s so crazy is that Julian’s character was based on Michael Landon jr. Jr didn’t actually die. He became a Christian and produces Christian films.
アンドリューマッカーシーが好きだったので、観ました。バットエンドな結末でしたが、比例して全編に流れる「トーマス・ニューマン」のサウンドトラックが物悲しく美しくて素晴らしかった。
At 1:29 you can see by the look on is face that he is in shock at the situation. He hadn’t realized that it had gotten that bad.

GREAT MOVIE 😢
I used to be addicted to opiates and every time i went through withdrawal, i would always think about this scene. Its very realistic.
Love him 3000
When he returns de ring 😭 It’s Julian saying I could not use it for drug! I respect you even at my lowest! It gave you a bit of hope for him 😢
😔
i cried when julian died at the end.
i just cried and cried.
He wants more so bad 😔😔
He lived it with the money he made from this movie
Cant imagine how torturous that comedown must have been.
And they look through his coat like it's not Theres.

Such a good true sad movie !!!
Addiction is a bad thing.
This was me 7 years ago, i felt like shit
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
