This is a very accurate portrayal from Lois's book. In addition, it resembles Bill's Story, Chapter 1 in the Big Book. I've been sober 23 years and can tell you that my journey started with my thinking problem. The obsession and compulsion to drink was lifted. Therefore, all that was left was and is to continue working on my thinking. I like this film a lot because it portrayed how selfish and self-centered Bill's thinking was. Especially, the hospital scene. This caters to the Al-Anon and Alcoholic audience. I truly recommend it in addition to the film, The Country Girl.

I liked Natalie Krill more. She was a little delayed in relaying her lines, but more mature. I liked how Dallas broke down her snobby attitude. Dallas was annoying and selfish, but realistically, maybe she knew Jasmine was the one. There are so many people who lose that chance to be with their true love. This was different for Dallas. I look at it from a spiritual factual point of view: Although this is a film, these situations happen in real life. They do happen in a weekend’s time. People can fall in love in a short period of time. They just know. Dallas helps closeted women who see this film to face coming out. The ONLY thing I liked about Dallas was at the end, she admitted she put Jasmine in that situation. She did take responsibility then. Jasmine admitted she wanted it for those saying Dallas stalked her or chased her. Jasmine liked the attention. So, I am not complaining and not only that, the sex scenes were good. Blue is the Warmest Color’s sex scenes were a joke. I won’t see that film again. The dildo during the sex scenes was my ONLY problem. It was weird.
