Last Days

Michael Pitt, who you may remember from Murder by Numbers and The Village, stars as a Kurt Cobain-like rock star burning out furiously on heroin.

One has to infer the drug is heroin from Pitt's behavior, wherein he varies from being totally passed out to wandering around like a zombie.

This doesn't need to be a long review. Why? Because there's only about 20 minutes of movie here, except that each cut seems to go on much longer than it normally would. Like five or six times longer. This is something David Lynch can get away with. Gus Van Sant hasn't mastered it yet.

Don't bring your No-Doz because you will want to sleep through this movie.
