Girl, Interrupted

Film Description

Based on writer Susanna Kaysen's account of her 18-month stay at a mental hospital in the 1960s, this film is sensitively handled by director James Mangold. Winona Ryder stars as Susana, a troubled teenager whose confused attempt at suicide lands her in a mental hospital. Once there, she meets an odd assortment of characters, including Lisa (Angelina Jolie), who at first mesmerizes Susana with her uninhibited demeanour. The pair form a tight bond, but that connection is threatened when Lisa begins to spiral even further out of control.
