5.0 out of 5 stars Watching Movies as a Journey Toward Understanding, March 22, 2001
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Reel Therapy: How Movies Inspire You to Overcome Life's Problems (Paperback)
Dr. Gary Solomon's Reel Therapy: How Movies can Help You Overcome Life's Problems is a great follow up to his The Motion Picture Prescription. The new book is longer, and has a helpful introduction based on answering the common questions Dr. Solomon was asked as he promoted the first book.

Reading Reel Therapy reminded me that understanding life isn't a destination, it's a process, and that I'm not alone in wrestling with childhood demons, and some very adult ones as well. Reading the review of The War at Home took me back to growing up in a neighborhood that was a war zone, memories I can never escape, but at least I can understand. Reading about Trainspotting took me back to my own need to be someone else, anyone else, for a few hours, at whatever cost.

Reel Therapy offered a stronger view of Dr. Solomon's own journey. For me, his background as a survivor means he knows what it's like to take that first step out of a dark box into a scary world.

I'm sure this book will help many take that first step.
