About this product

Product Information

Based on the bestselling memoir by Elizabeth Wurtzel, PROZAC NATION tells the true story of Wurtzel's own difficulties with severe depression during her first year at college. Liz (Christina Ricci) is a gifted writer whose talent earns her a scholarship to Harvard University. Escaping from the controlling arms of her mother (Jessica Lange), Liz's delicate mental state is tested by the stress of being away from home at a challenging institution. Finding refuge in drugs and sex, she views herself with increasing criticism, eventually unable to work on her writing at all. A character study with a loose narrative that explores the seriousness of depression, PROZAC NATION was directed by Erik Skjoldbjaerg (INSOMNIA).

  • For fans of Girl, Interrupted

    The casting is perfect for this film with Christina Ricci as lead, Jessica Lange as her mother, and Michelle Williams as her college friend. Based on a true story about Elizabeth Wurtzel in a similar fashion as Girl, Interrupted is about Susanna Kaysen. Both went on to write other books about themselves as well, but only one made into a film.

  • Psychological Drama Worth Watching

    Fascinating film exploring the psychological issues that young college students may face. Insightful in some ways, vulgar and crass in others. The performances are generally of high quality and its an interesting peak back into the culture of the 80s, told through a interesting story. Its hard to find on streaming, so I was glad to find a DVD for a good price.
