Munich-the movie - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Great movie IMO, but just wanted to throw out a warning. Near the end there is a PTSD like scene. It really threw me for a loop. It combines sex with flashbacks of the main character's guilt.

Although my PTSD is not from military actions, it is due to terrorism. This scene shocked the hell out of me. Its also closer to the truth than I want to admit.

So if you have PTSD you might want to be aware of this scene. I wish I had been.

Alera, thank you for the input on this. It can be quite disturbing.

I suffer from PTSD, and the movie "Looking for MR Goodbar" was so traumatic for
me I still shudder from even thinking of it. I know what you are talking about.

Thank you again for your input. It is much appreciated.
Hugs,

I'm glad I posted this now, WolfStarr. I was reading at a movie board that one man went with some men, including a Vietnam Vet. The vet walked out during this scene and after the movie his friends found him in the parking lot crying.

Great great movie, but just be aware!
