The casting is perfect for this film with Christina Ricci as lead, Jessica Lange as her mother, and Michelle Williams as her college friend. Based on a true story about Elizabeth Wurtzel in a similar fashion as Girl, Interrupted is about Susanna Kaysen. Both went on to write other books about themselves as well, but only one made into a film.

Fascinating film exploring the psychological issues that young college students may face. Insightful in some ways, vulgar and crass in others. The performances are generally of high quality and its an interesting peak back into the culture of the 80s, told through a interesting story. Its hard to find on streaming, so I was glad to find a DVD for a good price.

This movie hits home on many levels, for many viewers, although it never says she is Borderline Personality Disorder, simply by seeing the movie, many people will notice this is where she is at in life, If you or someone you know has depression, this is a pretty good view of how people in this stance really feel, although every case is differently, I really enjoyed this unique perspective on our "prozac nation" Our world has transformed into a large market for many anti-depressants, and after viewing this movie, I think many more people will understand more of "why" it has. I recommend this video to people suffering from depression, as a way to see that you are not alone, and to people who enjoy movies that are real. This movie is based on a true story, so it has more of a reality factor then most others like it. A+Read full review
To be honest, I got this strictly for Christina Ricci. Was not disappointed.

Had never seen 'Prozac Nation' when I decided to purchase it. I am, however, a fan of Christina Ricci who stars as the main character. Beyond that, there were quite a few great reviews on the movie that I had seen other places before my decision to buy. I found that Christina Ricci's acting was very believable and she really brought you into her character's thoughts and mentality. With this movie you're able to follow her into some very trying and emotional times which some will be able to empathize with Christina Ricci's character. I thought that the movie was done very well and would absolutely recommend it to any Christina Ricci fan, or really to anybody who likes a good, dramatic movie!
