I had actually no idea how much Bill Wilson went through, emotionally and physically, in beginning the AA fellowship and then keeping it from destroying itself. This movie told a gripping, captivating portrayal of the hopelessness, struggle and disheartening conditions of Alcoholism society endured by those inflicted, and at that time with no chance of recovery. That is until Bill Wilson, through years of torment and devastation through his own Alcoholism brought together pieces presented to him, through medical professioninals, clergy, religious organizations and the miracle of a friend's new found soberity; which he then ingeniously sewn together into a solution for a program of living geared to the Alcoholic like himself. This was an excellent presentation of Bill Wilson, the man, who was just a drunk like so many that AA helped to find recovery, with all his shortcomings and human frailties and yet who never gave up!
Pros great story
Yes, I recommend this movie.
