Girl Interrupted, a 1999 film adaptation of author Susanna Kaysen's memoir. The film is shot from the perspective of 18 year old Susanna. Depressed and directionless after finishing high school in the late 1960's, a suicide attempt lands her in Claymore, a local mental institution. There she befriends a band of troubled women in her ward (Georgina the pathological liar, the sexually abused Daisy, the burn victim Polly) but falls under the hypnotic sway of psychopathic Lisa, the wildest and most hardened of the bunch.
