I seem to recall enjoying Drugstore Cowboy.

I thought it was very good. It was very well reviewed. I've never bumped into anyone who didn't like it who wasn't simply one of those types who shrieks whenever drugs are mentioned.

I generally don't like Van Sant as a director. And Matt Dillon is very actorly and unconvincing. After Christiane F, I found this film mannered and inconsequential. It didn't tell me anything, or make me feel anything.

There are plenty of reviewers on IMDB who also thought it sucked, btw.
