Plot
Summary: Elizabeth, a prize-winning student,
is headed for a prestigious college. As she's packing
to leave, her mother harangues her about her choice
of school, establishing the modus operandi for what
will prove to be the turbulent core of their relationship:
an ongoing game of emotional extortion. When Elizabeth
arrives at university, she quickly befriends her roommate
Ruby and almost immediately recreates the same powder
keg she has just left behind. The situation is exacerbated
by her visits to a rather suspicious psychiatrist.
Matters deteriorate further when Elizabeth runs into
her father and when she decides that her most recent
boyfriend Rafe represents deliverance. Her only choice,
ultimately, is Prozac--the wonder drug of the nineties.
However, before long, Elizabeth is wondering whether
the drug is really helping her--or running her life.
Comments:
I
loved this movie. Elizabeth Wurtzel is my favorite
author and Prozac Nation is one of her best books,
if not the best. Her openness about her life and sarcasm
make her amazing. She's truly an inspiration! I would
recommend this movie and her books(Prozac Nation,
Bitch, etc.)to everyone!
