Assault on Tony's

Before his untimely death in 1994, John O'Brien penned the brilliant Leaving Las Vegas, which was made into a Golden Globe Award-winning film starring Nicholas Cage. In this manuscript found after his death, five men--all committed drinkers--are caught inside Tony's bar while a race riot rages outside. Against this backdrop, a weird drama plays out as the supply of booze slowly dwindles."(O'Brien takes) us deep into an alcoholic's world that few others have described so well."
