This is one movie every writer should see. It is about F. Scott Fitzberald, an amazing writer who had definitely some battles to overcome but he always kept his mind clear for writing. Jeremy Irons plays Fitzgerald, Neve Campbell plays his secretary who grows very close to him in his last moment. Through all off this, Fitzgerald writes his best work. It is not a joyous film but one to be seen for sure

This is a very accurate portrayal of Scott Fitzgerald's last days as he struggles to create the novel The Last Tycoon under the eye of a youthful secretary who basically must become his housewife. The story is not only about writing, but about a talented man's struggle to maintain his decency and integrity after totally blowing out his personality with a monstrous addiction to alcohol. He mainly succeeds, not always, but it is the sort of thing which ought to be shown at AA meetings.

On the inside, Irons gets the brass nerve evident in the personality of F Scott Fitzgerald through his books. He portrays the rising to the occasion of writing the book "The Last Tycoon" to a tee, complete with the brass nerve, the games alcoholics play, the eccentricity ... Read More

This movie is an interesting docudrama about the last years of F. Scott Fitzgerald as he was writing "The Last Tycoon."
Starring as F. Scott Fitzgerald is award winning actor Jeremy Irons. While I have the greatest respect for Irons as an actor I just didn't feel he pulled off this part. Irons has an evilness that seems to hang around his characters and Fitzgerald never struck me as evil only severely flawed and tempted. So the brooding and self-deprecating Irons never allowed the vulnerability ... Read More
