When Love is Not Enough: The Lois Wilson Story

This movie is based on the true story of Lois Wilson (co-founder of Al-Anon, and her husband Bill Wilson (co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous). It delves into the true tale of their enduring but troubled love story. When Love Is Not Enough is Lois' story and Ryder plays her with wide eyes of both innocence and terror. Ryder made it clear the extent to which Lois had no idea how dreadful her husband's condition was and how, in those pre-AA days, how isolated and confused a woman married to such a man had to be.
