St. Louis-area alcoholics rejoice! Bill W. is coming to the Tivoli!
Alcoholics Anonymous, with its famous Twelve Steps and Serenity Prayer, was founded in 1935 by Bill Wilson. The organization popularized the scientific-minded theory of alcoholism as a disease while exhorting its members to give themselves over to a higher power. Bill W. tells the story of William G. Wilson, a man included in Time Magazine’s “100 Persons of the 20th Century.” Interviews, recreations, and rare archival material reveal how Bill Wilson, a hopeless drunk near death from his alcoholism, found a way out of his own addiction and then forged a path for countless others to follow. With Bill as its driving force, A.A. grew from a handful of men to a worldwide fellowship of over 2 million men and women.a success that made him an icon within A.A., but also an alcoholic unable to be a member...

Why You Have to See "Bill W." -- New Documentary About Alcoholics Anonymous Founder. Read My Review!
William G. Wilson, the iconic driving force behind Alcoholics Anonymous, is the subject of the new documentary .Bill W.. from directors Kevin Hanlon and Dan Carracino. It.s a fitting homage to a man who went to great lengths to help fellow alcoholics.
.Bill W.. would have been a tawdry and salacious look at Wilson.s life if not for the caring, well-researched work by the filmmakers. Talks of his infidelity, experimentation with LSD, and depression helped shape Wilson as a respectable albeit flawed hero.
Told in a chronological fashion, .Bill W.. covers the life and times of Wilson. In 1999, he was named one of Time Magazine.s Top 20 Heroes and Icons of the 20th Century for his work as A.A..s co-founder. What made him start the 12 Step recovery of the program?
Born William Griffith Wilson in 1895 in East Dorset, Vermont, Wilson grew up to be a determined young man,...

“Bill W.” tells the story of the largely unsung hero William G. Wilson, the co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, an organization that has saved the lives of thousands and thousands of people. The documentary, by directing and producing team Kevin Hanlon and Dan Carracino, is an effort to tell a relatively unknown story about a man who has been a guiding light for many other relative unknowns. The title stands in the tradition of A.A., where members are granted absolute anonymity, both to protect them from the stigma of alcoholism and to shelter the organization from potential media hounds. Even as his organization grew to include tens of thousands of members, Wilson’s identity was not revealed to the public until his death in 1971: many recovering alcoholics knew their savior only as “Bill.”

Title: Bill W. Directors: Kevin Hanlon and Dan Carracino Starring: Blake J. Evans, Chris Gates, Dennis Lowell, Julia Schell, Tim Intravia A documentary about the man who clawed his own way out of drunkenness and then forged a path for countless others to follow by co-founding Alcoholics Anonymous, “Bill W.” benefits from the plainly fascinating nature of its subject — a man of contradictions and consistent struggles, who lived a life of sacrifice and service and yet always seemed racked with doubt over whether it was quite enough. Borrowing liberally from moving and articulate personal correspondence as well as audio recordings of insightful speeches, the movie overcomes a bit of [ Read More ]...
