I cant help but..
See the film continuously through Krishas eyes, how tense she she mustve been to walk through the front door, how everyone had a hapiness but underlying sting to their interaction with her, how hard it was for her to pace the cooking of the turkey, and yes, how undeniably painful was her conversations with her brother in-law.
As difficult as addiction is for the family, its beyond numbers how exasperating it is for the addict. An addict has stopped growing, developing the moment they've become satisfied with a life of addiction. Honestly, I'd gather the success rate of familial reintroduction at an abysmal rate. An addict will not "fit" in.
One thing I didnt see in this film is Krishna adhering to the young daughter, spending time with her, getting to know her. I say because addicts dont relate to adults as they do kids; adults judge. Kids dont understand indirect addiction. Its like a temporary affliction thay goes away, not unlike the common cold. They will sit and talk and play as if the special day was forever. And the addict can teach, admire and console as if they had never touched a drink in their lives. A child allows the adfict to forget, if only for a while or a day, the life they had led, the pain they've felt, the unfunctional world they still cannot understand how they've delved so deep.
This movie is going to have both sides covered, the smart money is to know that both sides exists. In the world of addiction, you arent the onnly one to feel unquenchable pain.
