Just saw it last night and thought it was great! I've always been a big fan of Winona Ryder and Angelina Jolie is, well, Angelina Jolie. A wonderful actress (have you seen "Pushing Tin"?) and a beautiful woman. I thought the plot (based on a woman's real life experiences) and the characters were superb! I thought that the idea of whole chickens being brought to a patient, and a patient being allowed to have sex in her room with her boy friend were a bit of a stretch though. All in all it was one of the best movies I've ever seen. This from a sci-fi fan huh? I give it two enthusiastic thumbs up!
Roger Ebert, uh, I mean,
Greg> Hey, y'all. I just rented "Girl, Interrupted" the other night and was wondering if any of you have seen it yet. For those of you who haven't, Winona Ryder stars as a young girl in the late Sixties who is committed to a mental hospital for depression and a suicide attempt. I found it to be very insightful, a wonderful commentary on life and the pursuit of inner happiness. Any comments?
