Great Angelina Jolie...

Rating: 6/10 (14 December 2018)

"Girl, Interrupted" is a Biography - Drama movie which is based on the 18-month stay of Susanna Kaysen's at a mental hospital in the 1960s. Since she had many difficulties to cope with reality and all the difficulties that have to surpass in order to actually live on it she was hospitalized at a very well known mental hospital. There she met many other women and with some of those she considered them as friends. Especially with one of those she created a special bond which was very difficult to break and be able to continue her therapy.
I liked this movie because it was based on a real-life story which I found very interesting. I believe that this period of life was remained in Susanna Kaysen's memory for a long time not to say in the whole duration of it because it was something very important for her since she learned more not only about other people but for herself too in combination with the reality of course. I liked the interpretations of Winona Ryder who played as Susanna Kaysen and she was very good at it and Angelina Jolie who played as Lisa and I believe it was her best performance so far (won the Academy Award for the Best Actress in a Supporting Role on 2000). Another interpretation that has to be mentioned was Brittany Murphy's who played as Daisy and she was equally good. About the direction which was made by James Mangold I have to say that it was very interesting and he combined very well drama moments with funny ones but from the perspective of the unstable people, something very hard to succeed on it.
Finally, I believe that "Girl, Interrupted" is an interesting movie to watch, with many good scenes, a great plot and many good interpretations made by its cast. I recommend everyone to watch this movie because I believe that everyone has something to gain from it in a matter of understanding of how easy is to become one of those people and that is extremely close the one side of mental health to another where you are unstable or sick.
