Description: Like the book it is named after and based on, "Permanent Midnight" is a chronicle of downfall. Jerry Stahl, the story goes, showed promise when doing shifts as a porn writer for "Hustler" and "Penthouse", and his promise landed him in the exact center of television's hottest shows of the 1980s. Alas, Stahl also brought with him a gargantuan appetite for drugs, most damagingly heroin. The film begins with Stahl, played by Ben Stiller, working in a fast-food chain on his way back to society from the drug-addled skids and recovery. He's lured away from work, where in a hotel room with Maria Bello (as Kitty) he begins detailing his fall from TV's top (where he wrote for shows like "Alf" and "Moonlighting", among others). Director David Veloz does great work in leading viewers through the episodes in addiction and excess, making the action seem naturally odd.
