About this product

Product Information

In Neil Armfield's CANDY, Heath Ledger and Abbie Cornish play Dan and Candy, two young bohemians who fall madly in love while shooting heroin together. In the beginning, the couple's days are occupied with making love, shoplifting, and having a strung-out wedding day that ends with a lot of giggling over a couple of Big Macs. Despite Candy's disapproving parents, they cling to each other with a fierceness that shuts out any and all outside criticism. When funds or drugs are low they pop by the house of a pharmacology professor named Casper (Geoffrey Rush), who uses his professional expertise to supply them with pharmaceutical-grade heroin. As the reality of their addiction creeps to the forefront, they must turn to desperate measures to get their fix. Candy becomes a prostitute, and Dan a thief and con man. When Candy discovers she's pregnant, they decide to go cold turkey, but the horrific side effects of withdrawal result in a miscarriage. The two tumble into despair, and opt to move to the country to try methadone treatments. Candy's depression soon blooms into a full-blown nervous breakdown, and as her parents finally usher her into rehab, Dan returns to his friend Casper for comfort, only to find him dead of an overdose. Heroin abuse--with its soaring highs and inevitable crash--has been well-documented in many films. However, CANDY brings something fresh to the story with its focus on the doomed junkie love affair. Candy and Dan tumble into each other much in the same way they descend into addiction--with a white-hot, desperate need that blinds them to reality. It's a moving, realistic portrait of how that kind of all-encompassing, obsessive love can sometimes be just as powerful as any drug, and just as hard to kick.

Candy is dandy but liquor is quicker
This is a perfect example of art imitating life. It is prophetic that Heath Ledger would showcase his demise in this film only to follow in real life. The waste of talent is obvious from both perspectives. I am a drug counselor with the Department of Corrections and I continue to see this type of waste of life which sends ripples of pain into many lives. I like to introduce new perspectives on this drama from as many perspectives as possible and this is a good fit with the dozens of films I have bought over the years. I am looking forward to sharing this with my patients for entertainment and reflection.

Heath Ledger RIP we love you!
This was one of Heath's last movies before his untimely death. This was an excellent performance by Heath, very emotional. Perhaps more true to life, not knowing if drugs played a part in some way to Heath's death. I would recommend this film to anyone who might ever think about using. You get to see first hand what could happen because of the drug use and what path your life could go down. Not a pretty sight. We regret we will not be able to enjoy much more of Heath's work. He is a brilliant performer. So young and talented to be gone so soon. I bought this film because it is one of Heath's last & best performances.
