I'm not talking about films about coke, but films where you can tell damn near everyone involved was fukking zooted while making it.

Obviously the 80s is the peak for this in Hollywood.

And this thread is inspired by watching the 80s film Streets of Fire. This is a dope film that i recommend but god damn the coke levels are off the charts :mjlol:

From the editing, the music performances, the acting, the concept, story and the fact that 80s coke God Joel Silver produced it....

Scarface is an obvious one. I think Oliver Stone actually got addicted to coke while writing it

As far as recent movies, Baz Luhrman’s movies. Just constant sensory overload and over the top performances and camera movements. It’s the reason why I could never get into his films. I remember watching The Great Gatsby in theaters and becoming increasingly annoyed. Felt like someone was shaking me while screaming into my ear

Basic Instinct.

Any Simpson/Bruckheimer productions esp. in the '80s; Don Simpson was a maniac and a serious cokehead. All of them bear his hyperkinetic, coke-addled imprint:

1. Top Gun
2. Beverly Hills Cop 1/2
3. Flashdance
4. Days of Thunder (a notoriously debauched production)

For that matter, any Joel Silver production; have you ever seen True Romance? The film producer that Christian Slater tries to do the coke deal with is based on Silver. He was recently sued by the family of his personal assistant, who died on a coke and alcohol-influenced bender a few years ago (despite Silver claiming he maintains a "drug-free" environment). These are a few other of his seriously coke-influenced movies:

1. Xanadu (coke-inspired madness)
2. Commando
3. Lethal Weapon (seriously; it's over the top, and barely makes sense)
4. Jumping Jack Flash (with Whoopi at her cokiest)
5. The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (the Andrew Dice Clay movie)
6. Road House (see Lethal Weapon)
7. The Last Boy Scout (probably his cokiest movie)
8. Fair Game
9. Action Jackson

And so on.

Robert Altman's Popeye, starring Robin Williams. It was made in Malta, and there was nothing to do but do coke and get into mischief. Robert "The Godfather" Evans even got in trouble for smuggling cocaine into his luggage during production; his pal Kissinger got involved!

Also The Last Waltz and New York, New York, made back-to-back in 1978 by Scorsese. The Last Waltz starred The Band and a host of other seventies rock heavyweights. They had to hide a coke booger prominently dangling from Neil Young's nose, to give you an idea of the kind of production. New York, New York was a serious cocaine movie; Scorsese was fukking Liza Minnelli at the time (herself a heavyweight drug user), and the whole movie is massively overindulgent. Shortly thereafter, he lost a ton of weight due to cocaine and nearly died, spending ten days in the hospital (where De Niro suggested Raging Bull).
