Mary Lou 05/24/2021 True life, how one suffering from substance abuse lose everything to the disease. It takes over the mind. The family struggles, disconnects, separate get mad, fear don't understand and blame themselves. Think its their fault they are that way. Family need supports and never lose hope. Because miracles can happen. See more Peggy Z 05/24/2021 Could have had a more dramatic ending. Mila Kunis was very believable in her role. See more Paula D 05/23/2021 Glen Close was awesome and Mila Kunis superb! See more Anna 05/22/2021 If you know anyone struggling with addiction this is a must see.
