Mixing prescription drugs + alcohol?


Surely that's not a grand idea?

Plus I had to laugh when Brad was puking from drinking too much...its so unrealistic as at that age if one is a consant consumer of alcohol, one does not puke.

Nope - probably not a grand idea to mix prescription pills and booze. However the movie was set in the 1970s - not as much focus on that topic back then as there is now. Not to mention, Angelina's character appeared to be depressed most of the time. I had to laugh at how high pitched her voice sounded and how animated she appeared.

As far as Brad's character vomiting, it is realistic that constant consumers of alcohol in their early fifties barf.....on a regular basis.
