About
Girl, Interrupted is a feature film based on Susanna Kaysen's 1993 memoir of the same name. Directed by James Mangold, it is set at a New England psychiatric hospital c. 1967, where Winona Ryder lands after a nervous breakdown, playing the Kaysen role and also producing. Among the committed at Claymoore are Brittany Murphy, Elisabeth Moss and, in a star-making turn, Angelina Jolie as sociopath agitator Lisa Rowe. Ryder holds the film together with her quiet, alert intensity, offering a springboard for her co-stars.

Critics
6.5Good
Critics praise the ensemble cast, especially Jolie's vivid turn, and the absorbing depiction of the ward's sisterhood. They fault the thin, episodic plotting, sentimental melodrama, and clichéd supporting characters that soften the story's emotional force.
