I just saw this movie for the first time last night. I enjoyed the movie (I haven't read the book) but, still, I felt a lose of representation of the depressive condition. Overall, I could identify with movie, still, I felt the show didn't truely represent 'my' mind. So portions began to show the turmoil experienced but it failed to give the whole picture. After viewing the movie, I thought, crap, that girl really wasn't too far off from normal. . .
Has anyone else seen the film? I would love to hear what others thought? (Is this show a gauge of my experience?) |

I haven't seen the movie, didn't even know there was one, but the book was great, just put me in a bad place thinking like that.

I haven't seen the movie either, but the book was terrific -- and apparently made it much more clear that she wasn't anywhere near normal! It was pretty scary, actually, the way she described things.

I enjoyed the movie - I was able to identify with certain things.

No, it wasnt you, it was when I was reading the book it had that effect on me, with the details she had and like candybear said the way she described things. I worded my last post kinda awkward, sorry for that, you weren't in any wrong.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
