À propos de ce film

Kate (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) and Charlie (Aaron Paul, TV's "Breaking Bad" ) are a young married couple whose bond is built on a mutual love of music, laughter and drinking...especially the drinking. When Kate's drinking leads her to dangerous places and her job as a school teacher is put into jeopardy, she decides to join AA and get sober. With the help of her new friend and sponsor Jenny (Octavia Spencer, The Help), and the vice principal at her school, the awkward, but well intentioned, Mr. Davies, Kate takes steps toward improving her health and life. Sobriety isn't as easy as Kate had anticipated. Her new lifestyle brings to the surface a troubling relationship with her mother, facing the lies she's told her employer (Megan Mullaly TV's "Parks and Recreation" ) and calls into question whether or not her relationship with Charlie is built on love or just a boozy diversion from adulthood. 2012 Smashed, LLC.

Notes et avis

When I watched this movie it really brought back the feelings I had during a brief time in my life where I felt drinking would help and that there was nothing wrong with it until i realized what alcohol had done to me. Its scary when you see people even yourself urn into something I would not even recognize today. Alcohol is devastating and I appreciated the honesty where he told her to stop blaming because that is exactly what it is blaming self pity and it gets old especially when you are around alcoholics and yu are sober.

She totally needed to stop drinking! This film was sadly another example of AA failure instead of empowerment - her husband was shut out and tried (with what skills he had) to get on board & she became the cliché of her own father. There's always help, alienating someone who loves you but doesn't know how to help is pretentious & cruel. In review? She made a nicer drunk than a sober person and her AA friends were never 'there for her' either. *thumbs down*/3 stars for good acting

I don't understand why it's listed as "Comedy" (also). For me it's only Drama. The fact of Mary Winstead being a young beautiful woman makes it even sadder, as we see her losing her life to addiction. It's a good movie, I recommend it!
