Review of Bill W. (2012) by Indiefilmlover — 20 May 2012
What could have been a dull biography of Bill Wilson, the co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous is brought to life through rare photos, archival footage, dramatic recreations and thoughtful interviews. The documentary is particularly clever in its use of interviews with recovering alcoholics.
The interviews help you get a better understanding of not only Wilson, but the struggles of alcoholics in general. The film also does a good job in addressing the issues faced by any growing organization.
Documentary buffs and fans of character driven stories should seriously consider giving this film a look.
