But, sad to say, after repeated viewings I appreciate Uncle Monty more and more.

I think Danny represents the more obvious Druggy humor in the movie, but the humor in Uncle Monty is more subtle.

If you havnt read it, theres a book by Richard E Grant called 'Withnails' which is a diary he kept whilst filming Withnail (and Hudson Hawk and Interview with a Vampire etc) and it's well worth a read. Lots of behind the scenes withnail stories...

I see what you mean, Monty is a good charictor, oddly eccentric and comic, though i do feel quite sorry for him in a way.

Excuse my mad Doctor who obssesion for a momment but theres just something so intinsicly funny about seeing two versions of the doctor drunk!

*Anyway*

Here's an intresting question - do you think Withnail and I is nostalgic? My film class tutor asked that..
