Where to Watch A Want in Her
- Kevin WardMarch 5, 2026I loved the editing and the song choices, especially toward the end. It feels like a personal and heartbreaking portrait of what it’s like to navigate a family member’s alcohol and addiction issues. It’s not all bleak. There’s a fair amount of humor. And thankfully this did not end the way I thought it would.
