"One Of The Best Films Of The Year!" -Paul Tatara, CNN.COM
Two time Oscar-nominee Winona Ryder stars in the fascinating true story of a young woman's life-altering stay at a famous psychiatric hospital in the turbulent late 1960s.
Questionably diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, Susanna (Winona Ryder) rebels against head nurse (Whoopi Goldberg) and top psychiatrist (Vanessa Redgrave), choosing instead to befriend the resident "loonies" -- a group of troubled women including the seductively charismatic sociopath Lisa (Angelina Jolie).
But Susanna quickly learns that if she wants her freedom, she'll have to face the person who terrifies her most of all: herself.

Girl Interrupted, continued! - 4.5 out of 5 (8/2/2000)
"Girl, Interrupted" is a gripping story of a young woman's battle with mental "Girl, Interrupted" is a gripping story of a young woman's battle with mental illness that draws obvious comparisons to "One Flew over the Cuckoo's nest.

Excellent Story - 5 out of 5 (8/23/2002)
Being diagnoised with BPD myself this movie gave insight into the day to day dealings with this illness. I think it is an excellent movie that brought to light the dealings with BPD and what people go through.
