Some thoughts on a decent documentary about an important subject

Older documentaries that end will a hopeful montage + uplifting music are both darkly funny and super depressing, when you watch them later and know nothing much has changed.

And knowing this didn't really shift the culture is a bummer, because it's pretty decent... but then again, something like Bowling For Columbine was fantastic, but didn't change much in the actual US when it came to gun laws, so who knows...

I enjoy alcohol a lot, but am recently interested in documentaries and films on the subject because I'm constantly fearful of enjoying it too much. I know nobody expects to get addicted to anything, so if becoming an alcohol happens to others, it could happen to me.

This one is another I can add to my memory to tell me: "yeah, you might not be an actual alcoholic, but you should just be real conscious of what you drink, and maybe do it a little less." I could go on.... I haven't taken part in binge drinking much at all recently, but am finding more social occasions involve alcohol, as I've gotten older. Again, it's something I need to be mindful of, and documentaries like this one help in that regard.

Also Britain is far from the only place with an alcohol problem- Australia has many of the same problems, and a lot of teenagers get pretty into the stuff at a very young age here too...

Terribly Excellent

I only came across this excellent documentary this year, April 2021. I was a bit worried by it's intro, it could be off putting however, I percerived, and am glad I did.

Eye opening is a non plus. The amount of investigation required to make this documenty, is mind blowing, and I hate that phrase, being a tad short of pension age.

The creator almost made the most salient points; drink, cigarettes, sex and drugs, being points of passage. Drink got the mark, the rest were in the background.

This should be an educational tool in schools. It probably won't, which is a shame.

I give a high five in conclusion. The Irish are supposed to be able to drink the rest of the world under the table. Apparently we have finally lost, thankfully.

Everyone should watch this film.

First of all I just want to say wow! This film is awesome! The Royal Hangover fitted in so much into one enlightening documentary. It is hard hitting, truthful, funny, entertaining, insightful and a fascinating watch! Arthur Cauty has brought to light things that most people don't realize are connected to booze, such as the true financial, physical and psychological impacts that alcohol and alcoholism has.

There are several really interesting personal stories, and revealing negative experiences that are introduced to us. It also shows a broader picture of reality, by delving into and exploring how other people such as family members and health officials are also affected by alcohol, not just those that choose to drink.

If you choose not to drink alcohol watch this film, if you choose to drink alcohol watch this film. We all need to learn the truth.
