Our second Jersey film features the performance that won Michael Keaton his role as Tim Burton's Batman! Directed by Glenn Gordon Caron, 1988's "Clean and Sober" was the first non-comedic role for Keaton and featured a cast of great supporting players as welL! The story follows sleazy high-end real estate man Darly Poynter (Keaton) who awakes from a drug-fueled bender only to find that his romantic partner from the previous evening is non-responsive in his bed. After he calls an ambulance, the police immediately begin questioning him about what drugs were involved in the previous evening's festivities. Added to that, he has embezzled $90,000 from his employer and lost it all in an ill-timed real estate investment. After hearing an ad on the radio, Darly heads to a drug rehabilitation center as a way of hiding from anyone who might want to talk to him further. There he meets drug rehabilitation counselor Craig (Morgan Freeman), who doesn't fall for Daryl's hype or con for perhaps the first time in his adult life. He also finds himself attracted to fellow patients Iris (Claudia Christian) and Charlie Standers (Kathy Baker). After trying, and failing, to find a sponsor at a local AA meeting, he meets Richard Dirks (M. Emmet Walsh), who volunteers to be Daryl's sponsor against Daryl's protestations. But the road back is difficult and strewn with dangers and temptations. The film also stars Tate Donovan, Luca Bercovici, and Brian Benben. Plus, the gents reveal which film, and its "re-make," provide for the next pairing!
