Charlie and Kate Hannah are a fun-loving
couple but their heavy drinking is starting to become a problem for Kate. She is an elementary school teacher
caught up in a swirl of lies to cover her alcoholism. She decides getting sober will be the only way to counter
her downward spiral. One problem is Charlie is hesitant to join her and he doesn’t think he has an issue with drinking. Kate is able to set the
bottle aside, attend AA meetings and obtain a sponsor but she faces a fight for
her marriage and her job.
This movie is good, Kate is really out of
control and she can keep on drinking more and more or try to change
her life. She can’t change the
people around her, only what she is doing which is a real struggle. You really feel for her trying to
conquer her addiction and hope she can recover. 3 ½* (I liked this movie)
