Review by Hope, 14

16 Sep 2010

I loved this film so much. A film about life in a mental intitute in the 60's that you wouldn't expect to like but now it is my favourite film of all time. Angelina Jolie plays charismatic Lisa so well and the way she makes friends with Susanna(Winona Ryder) I loved the way that Susanna made friends with all her inmates to help rally against the nurses. I love Valerie so much, i think she is an amazing nurse and is played by an awesome actress. It's not your typical hollywood story but this true story about the life of Susanna Kaysen is amazing! Hope you like the film.
