Girl, Interrupted
1999

Director: James Mangold
Cast: Winona Ryder, Angelina Jolie, Whoopi Goldberg, Jared Leto
In the late 1960s Susanna checks in to a mental institution where she befriends the deeply troubled Lisa. Winona Ryder and the Oscar winning Angelina Jolie give creditable performances as the two ladies. However, it's a bit unclear what the point of the whole story is. So the narrator could write a book about it? Well she did. The film is based on Susanna Kaysen's memoir.
