awesome i love it!
But it'll get passed by as I'm working tomorrow for a 12 hour shift and will need beauty rest since I've had about 4 hours sleep in 2 days.
It IS a good film, though. :yes:
Gonna buy it on play.com I think
bless x
I was reading the book a couple of weeks ago, and I just found it incredibly whingey and self-centred. I've put that part of my life behind me, I just find the self-absorption of Keysen a bit pathetic now.
Kermit - I've never read the book. I'd like to though but I've not seen it anywhere
Steph - I loved that quote too. When I first watched this film, I suppose you could say I was very unhappy. I could relate to some of the issues in it. I just loved it. Even though I'm really happy now though, I still love the film. I think its brilliantly done. Other quotes I liked were..."Razors pain ya, Rivers are damp, Acids sting ya, Drugs cause cramp,Guns aren't lawful, Nooses give,Gas smells awful, You might as well live." Oh dear.
Another one I was obsessed with was this "Have you ever confused a dream with life? Or stolen something when you have the cash? Have you ever been blue? Or thought your train moving while sitting still? Maybe I was just crazy. Maybe it was the 60's. Or maybe I was just a girl... interrupted."
A couple of people have said "I might watch it" since this morning .
It's on Amazon, although I got my copy from Barter Books in Alnwick.
It's worth a read, but the whole thing is as whingey as Prozac Nation, although the author isn't as hateful as Wurtzel. It meant something when I read it when I was 19, after being told by a NHS mental health consultant that I was probably Borderline, but it just irritates me now I'm a lot better.
Yeah I read it recently and it wasn't particularly mind-blowing. Just started reading Sylvia Plath's The Bell-Jar because they get compared quite frequently.
