I liked it generally though I didn’t like what they did to Lisa. Lisa was a real person and she did not do those things in the movie.

I wrote my undergrad thesis on Girl, Interrupted because I found it such a brilliant memoir and Kaysen’s perspective so nuanced and strange. I’ve written about it a bit on my substack too! Loved this piece!!
