Re: Addiction storylines done well

Eh... the real answer is none of them are done perfectly, because addiction isn't a universally similar experience. People become addicted to substances differing degrees and it affects people in different ways.

Like, you could safely call The Dude in The Big Lebowski an addict (or dependence, depending on how you analyze the film), but his is not the tearful, dramatic kind of addiction.

You could similarly call Hunter S. Thomson an addict, but he was also an activist about his proclivities, and Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas is a film that captures his essence quite well.

I'd recommend any of VICE's documentaries on drug use for a look at real life addiction and drug culture. The might be somewhat one sided but they are usually very accurate to real situations.
