Smashed

Upon throwing up in front of students (Anjini Taneja Azhar, et al.) in her classroom and lying to the school principal (Megan Mullally) about being pregnant after another night of binge drinking with her husband (Aaron Paul) in this sobering, dark, well-acted, down-to-earth, 85-minute film, an alcoholic grade schoolteacher (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) finally decides to change her life and surprise her alcoholic mother (Mary Kay Place) by taking the advice of a 9-year sober coworker (Nick Offerman) and joins AA and listens to a caring sponsor (Octavia Spencer).
