Too much and too long
24 August 2022
This is a very much needed and edifying story. However, the protracted details of every negative experience and the drinking was unnecessarily rubbed in our faces. The first one would have made the point; further incidents should have been much shorter. The drinking episodes should also not have been exacerbated by overexposure! It was so bad, that I stopped watching. I am a recovering alcoholic and this showed "me" way too much. If the makers of this film wished to have an impact on the horrors of alcoholism, this was NOT the way to do it. The film could easily have been half its length and if it had been done more viewer-sensitively, I could have seen it through.
