The movie I chose to review is Girl Interupted. This story is an adaptation of the autobiographical book, set in the late 1960пїЅs, by Susanna Kayson herself. The disorder that she has is borderline personality disorder.
The movie was set in 1968. It starts out portraying SusannaпїЅs attempt at committingsuicide. She apparently chased a bottle of aspirin with a bottle of vodka. Her parents had one of her fathers colleagueпїЅs who doesnпїЅt practice anymore sit down with her and diagnose her. After the diagnosis, he says the rest she can get at Claymore was much needed. Claymore was an inpatient psychiatric facility. Because she was over 18, she had to sign herself in. At first she didnпїЅt know why she was in there. She did not understand her disorder, so she thought she didnпїЅt deserve to be there. She fought back and rebelled. She became good friends with a sociopath, Lisa Rowe, played by Angelina Jolie, who was definitely
a very hot bitch. As soon as she got what she was after, she took off, which is when she was caught and arrested.
