Heartbreaking to see another talented artist go to waste. Some people are just too brilliant/tortured to live in this world. Overall, I really liked this film, however, the downward spiral of Hope felt a bit forced, contrived, and somewhat vain. I do think it did a good job of showing that mental illness and addiction runs in families, but I think in some instances it came across as very self-centered.
It's fascinating how nothing really traumatic happened to these two in childhood, yet they both suffer/suffered so greatly in adulthood.
